Jio Financial Services shares: what’s behind latest surge?

Jio Financial Services shares: what’s behind latest surge?

Jio Financial Services shares witnessed a 3% rise on Tuesday as investors responded enthusiastically to a combination of robust quarterly results, a major acquisition, and a surge in trading volumes.

At the time of publication, the Jio Financial Services shares were trading at Rs 302.05.

The rally, which saw nearly 10.6 million shares worth over Rs 318 crore change hands, highlights renewed market confidence in the company’s growth trajectory and strategic direction.

Jio Financial Services shares are driven by strong fundamentals

The latest rally in Jio Financial Services shares came after the company posted a consolidated net profit of Rs 316 crore for the fourth quarter of FY25, marking a 2% year-on-year increase.

While interest income for the January–March 2025 quarter dipped slightly to Rs 276 crore, fee and commission income rose to Rs 39 crore, reflecting the company’s efforts to diversify its income streams.

One of the most striking figures from the results was the explosive growth in assets under management (AUM) in the lending and leasing segment.

AUM soared to Rs 10,053 crore, compared to just Rs 173 crore a year earlier, signaling JFS’s successful push into new business areas and its ability to scale rapidly.

The company’s aggressive expansion into digital payments, coupled with its strong balance sheet and backing from the Reliance Group, positions it well for future growth. 

Strategic acquisitions

The developments came in the backdrop of Jio Financial Services completing the acquisition of over 7.9 crore equity shares of Jio Payments Bank Limited (JPBL) from the State Bank of India (SBI).

The acquisition was concluded last week at the value of Rs 104.54 crore.

The move follows JFS’s earlier announcement in March to purchase SBI’s 17.8% stake in the payments bank and is widely seen as a strategic step to strengthen the company’s foothold in the digital payments and fintech ecosystem.

The shareholding pattern of the company also reflects strong confidence with 47.1% held by promoters, 11.7% by foreign institutional investors (FIIs), 6.6% by mutual funds, and 26.8% by the public.

‘Hold’ consensus and limited upside

Analyst recommendations for Jio Financial Services stock are currently neutral.

Stock market research and analytics platform Trendlyne indicates that 100% of analysts covering the stock rate it as a ‘Hold’.

The average target price is Rs 272, which suggests a downside of around 7–10% from current levels, as the stock recently traded above Rs 293. 

There are no ‘Buy’ or ‘Sell’ recommendations at this time, reflecting a consensus that investors should wait for further clarity on growth and integration of recent acquisitions before taking new positions.

For investors, the coming quarters will be crucial as JFS integrates JPBL, seeks to grow its AUM further, and navigates an increasingly competitive fintech landscape.

The company’s ability to deliver on these fronts will determine whether the recent surge in its share price marks the start of a sustained uptrend or a temporary spike.
