UTI AMC reported a steady FY26 with standalone revenue of ₹1,255 crore (+6.4% YoY) and normalized PAT of ₹643 crore (flat YoY). EBITDA margin contracted ~125bps to 36.7% due to higher employee costs (including VRS provision) and technology investments. Mutual fund AUM grew to ₹3.88 lakh crore (+14.5% YoY), driven by passive flows and SIP growth of 13.4% YoY. Management's single-line agenda is growth, targeting faster AUM expansion to absorb fixed costs.

Guidance for FY27 includes employee cost run-rate of ~₹95 crore/quarter (standalone) and other expense growth of ~8%.

low · analyst_questionNotable Quotes
The single line agenda is growth. We are operating below our capacity so the simple target over the next few years is to grow faster than our peers in the top 10 of the industry.
Managing yield for the sake of managing yield is not a thing that I'm in favor of. I would rather manage revenue.
The only way to avoid the cyclicality which is otherwise inherent in this business is the fact that your flows are pro-cyclical to performance. So I would like to dial that down by making sure that we have competent silos for each of these different strategies.
