Quarter read
What the record says.
Religare Enterprises reported consolidated total income of ₹2,067.9 crore for Q3 FY26, up 23.8% YoY, driven by strong performance in the insurance segment. Care Health Insurance saw retail health premium grow 41% YoY on a full premium basis, with market share expanding to 11.4%. The group absorbed one-time provisions for past service liabilities under the new labor code, impacting profitability. The broking business grew revenue 12% YoY to ₹91 crore, while the NBFC and housing finance segments remain in recovery mode. Management announced a demerger of financial services into RFL, expected to complete by Q1 FY28, aiming to unlock value. Risks include delayed restart of lending operations and uncertainty around the LVB deposit recovery case.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- The demerger of financial services business into RFL is expected to be completed in 15-18 months, i.e., by Q1 FY28.
- Out of the ₹1,500 crore warrants, up to ₹600 crore will be infused into Care Health Insurance as per original plans.
- RFL plans to lever its balance sheet to industry standards and restart lending once leadership is in place.
Risks flagged
- Management could not provide a timeline for restarting lending operations, citing leadership hiring still in progress.
- The ₹750 crore LVB deposit is fully provisioned; recovery depends on court proceedings with no timeline.
- The new labor code led to one-time provisions across segments, affecting reported profits.
- Promoter look-through shareholding in Care is ~19%, below the 25% required for a reverse merger, limiting future restructuring options.
Key quotes
- This is not just a restructuring or reorganization. It is a strategic imperative step designed to unlock shareholder value, create business clarity and position the resulting entities for sustained long-term growth.
- Our retail business during the quarter grew 41% year on year on a full premium basis with continued market share gains in retail health insurance.
- We are sitting on a cash of 500 crores completely unlevered. So as and when we start the business with new leadership team coming in place we are definitely looking at levering this to industry standards in next couple of years.
