Can Moneyview IPO deliver long-term growth for high-risk investors?

ET Intelligence Group: Moneyview, a digital lending and financial services platform, plans to raise ₹750 crore through a fresh issue to fund growth in loan disbursals and strengthen the capital base of its subsidiary along with ₹342 crore through an offer for sale. The promoter shareholding will fall to 19.3% after the IPO from 23.9%. Its registered user base has increased 61% annually over the past two years, while its monetised users have more than doubled. However, asset quality has deteriorated — gross non-performing assets (GNPA) ratio rose to 2.7% in FY26 from 0.9% in FY24. It remains exposed to regulatory risk. Any changes in norms by the banking regulator to restrict unsecured loans may affect its loan growth. Given these factors, investors may wait for a better clarity on financials after the listing.

Business

Incorporated in 2014, the company primarily offers services through its digital platform with personal loans remaining a key revenue driver. It has expanded into credit cards, earned wage access, home loans, loans against property, insurance, digital gold, UPI and bill payments though these offerings remain at a nascent stage. The company primarily serves households with annual income between ₹3 lakh and ₹11 lakh. Its registered users rose 27% annually to 13.4 crore between FY24 and FY26. The number of monetised users grew 53% annually to 1.1 crore over the same period. Revenue is primarily derived from fees, commissions and interest income. In FY26, fees and commissions contributed 56.7% to revenue. According to the Redseer Report, India’s personal loan market is projected to grow 18-20% annually to ₹33-36 lakh crore by FY31.
