PB Fintech Reports Strong Q4 Performance Driven by Insurance and Loan Growth

PB Fintech, the parent company of popular online insurance aggregator Policybazaar and the Paisabazaar credit platform, announced impressive financial results for the fourth quarter ending March 2025. This growth has been propelled by robust performance in its insurance and lending sectors.

Impressive Financial Gains

The company reported a remarkable 38% increase in operating income, while net profit surged nearly threefold in Q4 of fiscal year 2025. This significant momentum highlights the strength of PB Fintech across its various verticals.

Operating Income Breakdown

For the March quarter, PB Fintech recorded operating income of ₹1,508 crores, up from ₹1,089 crores in the same quarter last year. A substantial portion, ₹1,322 crores or 87%, was attributed to its core insurance brokerage services. This growth is mirrored by a 184% rise in net profit, which reached ₹171 crores compared to ₹60 crores during the corresponding period last year.

Annual Revenue Increases

Total revenues for the financial year 2025 stood at ₹4,977 crores, marking a 44.8% increase from ₹3,437 crores in fiscal year 2024. Including non-operational income, the company’s total revenue exceeded ₹5,385 crores, showcasing a strong financial foundation.

Investment Strategy and Margins

Despite significant revenue growth, PB Fintech has continued to invest in its various sectors. Total expenses rose by 29% year-on-year to ₹1,437 crores during the March quarter. Employee benefits alone saw a 15% increase, culminating in ₹508 crores. Nevertheless, net profit after tax soared by 448% to ₹353 crores for fiscal year 2025, up from ₹64 crores the previous year, demonstrating improved operational efficiency.

Robust Premium Collections

A vital aspect of the quarterly performance was the remarkable increase in insurance premium collections. Policybazaar successfully collected ₹7,030 crores in premiums during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, a significant rise from ₹2,176 crores during the same timeframe last year. Annual premium collections reached ₹23,486 crores, underscoring the company’s growing market presence.

Expansion into New Ventures

In addition to its core businesses, PB Fintech is expanding its insurance portfolio with new initiatives. These include developing a network of local agents and expanding health and international coverage, which generated ₹631 crores, albeit with a negative EBITDA of ₹40 crores, indicating that these ventures are still in a growth phase.

Credit Sector Developments

On the credit front, Paisabazaar has seen a notable shift towards secured products, such as home loans and loans against property. Credit disbursements nearly doubled to ₹7,652 crores in Q4 fiscal year 2025, compared to ₹3,546 crores during the same period the previous year. Additionally, the company facilitates around five lakh credit card issuances annually, reinforcing its robust lending platform.

Recent Investments in Healthcare

Earlier this month, PB Fintech’s newly launched health initiative, Health PB, secured $218 million (approximately ₹1,850 crores) in a seed financing round led by GENERAL CATALYST, a global investment firm. This move signifies PB Fintech’s commitment to diversifying its offerings and tapping into new markets.
