Our View
Incorporated in 1993, ICICI Pru AMC is one of the oldest asset management companies in India with history of over 30 years in the asset management industry. The company’s business model is capital efficient as evidenced from its return on equity of 86.8% (on an annualised basis) and 82.8% for H1FY26 and FY25, respectively.
The Asset Management Industry is expected to grow dramatically as India's economy matures and more people adopt modern investment habits. With India's mutual fund AUM-to-GDP ratio at ~20% (FY25) compared to the global average of 64%, there is significant headroom for penetration.
Risks to consider are competition from existing and new market participants, a highly regulated market, adverse market or economic conditions, dependence on services provided by certain third parties, attrition risk, credit risks related to debt investments, inability to sustain dividend payouts, and inability to obtain/renew licenses which could adversely affect business and cash flows.
On the financial front, the company posted CAGR ~32% in topline and bottomline during FY23–25; EBITDA also grew at ~32%. Their AUM mix, with a high proportion of equity, contributed to an operating revenue yield of 52 bps (annualised) and an operating margin of 37 bps (annualized) as at H1FY26. The customer count increased from 1.01 Cr. in FY23 to 1.55 Cr. in H1FY26.
The issue is priced at a P/BV of 27.3 based on its NAV of Rs. 79.3 as of September 30, 2025. If we annualize FY26 earnings, P/E comes around 33x (industry average ~32x). The issue is fully priced. At the upper band of ₹ 2,165, the issue implies a market cap of around ₹ 1.07 lakh crore.
Based on the comprehensive nature of the company's product offerings, established client base, and parentage of the ICICI group, the company is projected to achieve considerable growth in the long term. Investors may consider applying to the IPO with a long-term horizon.
