Revenue from Operations decreased from ₹79.05 crore in FY2024 to ₹94.47 crore in FY2025 and then to ₹72.40 crore in FY2026. Fees and commission income, the highest-contributing revenue line, followed the same pattern.

The company's active client base grew from 35,535 in FY2024 to 38,189 in FY2026, adding new customers at a broader CAGR of 15.30%, including fresh account openings during the period (Source: RHP, citing CARE Report).
During the period of the CARE Report, India’s demat accounts surged from around 409 lakh to 1,991 lakh, showing deeper involvement of retail investors in equity markets (Source: RHP, referencing CARE Report).
NSE-registered active clients rose from 108 lakh in FY2020 to 495 lakh in FY2025, before easing to 479 lakh in the quarter ended June 2026, a CAGR of approximately 32.8% across the period (Source: RHP, citing CARE Report, NSE).
India's brokerage market splits between discount brokers, offering low-cost trading platforms that draw younger and first-time investors, and full-service brokers, which bundle advisory, distribution and depository services around the trade itself (Source: RHP, citing CARE Report).
A discount broker works a bit like a self-service petrol pump. It costs less because the customer does more of the work, while a full-service broker still pumps the fuel and checks the tyres for a fee.
The CARE Report cited throughout this section was commissioned and paid for by Shah Investor's Home itself, standard practice for RHP industry sections across Indian IPOs. That funding arrangement does not necessarily change the underlying figures, but it is a detail worth keeping in mind.
The table below summarises Shah Investor's Home Limited's financial performance over the last three years, based on the Restated Consolidated Financial Information in the RHP.
| Financials (₹ crore) | FY2026 | FY2025 | FY2024 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Assets | 304.44 | 302.57 | 298.76 |
| Total Income | 72.40 | 94.47 | 79.05 |
| PAT | 13.11 | 23.42 | 18.05 |
| EBITDA | 21.62 | 35.31 | 25.13 |
| Net Worth | 179.71 | 168.09 | 150.54 |
Total Income and profit both declined from FY2025 to FY2026, after rising the prior year, while Net Worth increased from ₹150.54 crore in FY2024 to ₹179.71 crore in FY2026.
The company served over 100,000 demat accounts and more than 38,000 active trading clients through 11 branches and 181 authorised persons as of March 31, 2026, with Gujarat accounting for 96.15% of active clients.
Digital platforms, including the SIHL Moneymaker app and the ALGOFY algorithmic trading platform launched in FY2026, contributed 42.62% of brokerage income in FY2026, up from 17.61% in FY2024.
The company combines broking, depository, margin trading, and mutual fund distribution services under one brand, supporting cross-selling across its client base.
The company reported Return on Net Worth of 7.35%, 13.91% and 11.91% in FY2026, FY2025 and FY2024, respectively, alongside EBITDA margins ranging between 30.24% and 37.46% across the three years.
Promoters Upendra Trikamlal Shah, Purnima Upendra Shah, Tanmay Upendra Shah and Trupti Utpal Shah have led the company since it began as a stockbroker in 1995.
Gujarat accounted for 96.15% of active clients as of March 31, 2026. A regional slowdown in trading activity would affect a large share of revenue.
Broking operations depend on continued registration with NSE, BSE and MCX, and on uninterrupted connectivity to these exchanges. A disruption in exchange functioning or a lapse in registration would affect the company's ability to execute client trades.
Total Income fell from ₹94.47 crore in FY2025 to ₹72.40 crore in FY2026, after rising from ₹79.05 crore in FY2024. Profit after tax followed the same pattern, falling from ₹23.42 crore to ₹13.11 crore over the same period.
Operating activities used ₹19.70 crore in cash in FY2026, following a larger cash use of ₹31.86 crore in FY2025. Sustained negative operating cash flow would affect the company's liquidity.
Contingent liabilities and guarantees stood at ₹64.25 crore as of March 31, 2026, largely comprising bank guarantees. Any of these guarantees being invoked would affect financial condition.
Before evaluating the Shah Investor's Home IPO, investors may consider the following factors:
The company's geographic concentration of clients in Gujarat
Dependence on continued registration with NSE, BSE and MCX
The decline in Total Income and profit after tax in FY2026
History of negative operating cash flows
Contingent liabilities, including bank guarantees
Competitive intensity from discount and full-service brokers
Growth in active clients and digital platform adoption relative to the broking industry
Undisclosed price band and lot size as of the RHP filing date
These factors should be considered alongside the complete risk disclosures and financial information provided in the RHP.
