Management reaffirmed the conservative long-term guidance of 12–15 basis points, but the transcript does not provide the actual Q4 FY26 payments take rate. Therefore, delivery against the range cannot yet be confirmed. (1 in progress across 1 tracked commitment)
“We believe that on a long-term basis, a more sustainable margin in payments is between 12-15 basis points for us... 17 bps is not what we also see as a long-term sustainable margin but yes, we do believe that 13, 14, 15... is a more sustainable net payments margin.”

Financial Services revenue contracted year over year despite recovering sequentially from the Q3 FY25 trough. Revenue was INR 729.7 million in Q3 FY25, fell to INR 562.0 million in Q4 FY25, and recovered to INR 652.0 million in Q3 FY26. Management attributed the year-over-year decline to industry-wide changes in lending models. (2 contracting, 3 shifted)

Merchant payments have become management's main new growth priority, with expansion across offline devices, EDC terminals and soundboxes, plus online acquiring through Zaakpay. The footprint expanded from 366 to 1,118 cities, a 205% increase, while the business is still loss-making by approximately Rs. 13-15 crore per quarter and is expected to approach breakeven in two to three quarters. This indicates accelerating capacity and geographic expansion, although monetisation is not yet established. (2 accelerating across 2 signals)
“We have improved our footprint from 366 cities to 1118 cities... we do want to scale up our merchant business there - the device business, EDC and soundboxes... It may take a couple of quarters, 2 or 3 quarters but our hope is that they will breakeven.”
