The company’s assets under management (AUM) reached a new milestone, rising to ₹2,60,698 crore as of December 31, 2025. This marks a 7% increase on a quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) basis.

Revenue performance
On a standalone basis, Tata Capital's total revenue from operations stood at ₹5,783.28 crore for the quarter, up from ₹5,584.44 crore in the previous quarter.

Capital augmentation
Tata Capital launched a successful initial public offering (IPO) in October 2025. The fresh issue of 21 crore equity shares at ₹326 per share raised ₹6,696.60 crore in proceeds. These funds were fully utilised during the quarter to strengthen the company’s Tier-I capital base, positioning itself to meet future growth requirements. Consequently, the standalone debt-equity ratio improved to 3.95 times from 4.92 times in the preceding quarter.
