Introduction

India’s retail lending market is set to grow at a CAGR of ~15%, from ₹76.6 lakh Cr in FY26 to ~₹151 lakh Cr by FY31. Within this, unsecured loans are the faster-growing segment, projected to grow at ~19% per year over the same period.

Personal loans are the sharpest edge of this trend. They grew at a CAGR of ~43% between FY21 and FY26 and are expanding at ~20% a year.

Within personal loans, digital personal loans made up only ~15% of sanctions in FY26, but they are the fastest-growing slice.

Moneyview Limited sits inside this slice. The company accounted for about ~10% of India’s digital unsecured personal loan sanctions and ~2% of all unsecured personal loan sanctions in FY26.

They’re now going live in an IPO consisting of a Fresh Issue of ₹750 Cr and an Offer for Sale of ~₹342 Cr.

The Business Model

Moneyview runs a digital-only financial services platform built for what it calls Middle India: households earning ₹3-11 lakh a year.

Users access every product through the Moneyview mobile app, with no physical branches and no paperwork.

The app serves ~99% of India’s pin codes and has 140+ million Registered Users, of whom ~12 million have availed at least one paid product.

The platform offers four categories of products: Borrow, Transact, Invest, and Protect.

Personal loans are the flagship product and the main driver of revenue.

Moneyview offers instant digital loans of up to ₹10 lakh, with tenures of up to 60 months, underwritten by in-house AI and machine learning models trained on more than 100,000 data variables.

Moneyview does not lend all this money itself. It operates as a Lending Service Provider (LSP), and personal loans reach borrowers through two channels:

  • Platform Partners: 22 regulated banks and NBFCs. Moneyview earns origination fees for acquiring and onboarding the borrower, and servicing fees for running the loan’s life cycle, including collections. It also shares in credit losses through a Default Loss Guarantee (DLG) of up to 5% of the loan portfolio.
  • Whizdm Finance Private Limited (WFPL), its own NBFC subsidiary: Moneyview earns an origination fee plus the net interest margin. WFPL carries the entire credit risk on these loans.

Unit Economics (per ₹100 of Loan Disbursed)

  • Net Loan Revenue per ₹100 disbursed rose from ₹7.48 to ₹8.55 between FY24 and FY26.
  • This happened even as Finance Costs more than tripled on unit basis from ₹0.86 to ₹2.73, as the subsidiary WFPL took on more debt to fund its growing on-book portfolio.
  • Operating Profit per ₹100 disbursed rose from ₹2.08 to ₹3.42, a 65% jump over two years.
  • One interesting note is that Operating Expenses as % of Total Income fell from ~56% in FY24 to 34.84% in FY26.

Operating Metrics

  • Both the number of monetized users as well as the rate of monetization is climbing, as only 6% of registered users had paid for anything in FY24, rising to 8% in FY26, representing a larger share of a larger base.
  • Repeat AUM rose from 42.08% to 60.86% of Managed AUM between FY24 and FY26. More than three out of every five rupees Moneyview now manages belongs to a repeat borrower, not a first-time one, which lowers the cost of acquiring that AUM.
  • Moneyview’s annualised loss rate fell every year, from 7.93% in FY24 to 6.90% by June 2026, even as the industry-wide rate rose over the same period.

The Financial Stuff

  • Total Income grew from ₹1,389 Cr in FY24 to ₹3,404 Cr in FY26, a CAGR of ~56%.
  • Finance Costs rose from ₹125 Cr to ₹632 Cr, a 5x increase, tracking WFPL taking on more debt. In fact, this is the fastest-growing cost line for Moneyview.
  • (Money set aside for) Impairment of Financial Instruments nearly quadrupled, from ₹253 Cr in FY24 to ₹983 Cr in FY26.
  • Exceptional items of ₹207 Cr in FY26 are due to a one-time CEO incentive of ₹160 Cr plus the cyber fraud loss of ₹47 Cr.
  • PAT Margin fell every year, from 12% in FY24 to 10% in FY25 to 7% in FY26. Rising Finance Costs and Impairment ate into the margin faster than Total Income could outrun them, and FY26’s exceptional item made the decline steeper.

Moneyview’s Peers (FY26)

  • Moneyview’s RoNW of 18% is the third-highest of the six, behind OnEMI and Bajaj Finance, and well ahead of PB Fintech and Paytm.
  • Moneyview’s 7% PAT Margin is the second-lowest in the set, ahead of only Paytm. That gap exists because FY26 Margin is dragged down by the one-off CEO incentive and cyber fraud charge.
  • Scale remains the widest gap. Moneyview’s ₹3,404 Cr of Total Income is a fraction of almost all of its listed peers. Only OnEMI, at ₹2,209 Cr, is smaller than Moneyview.

At an upper band price of ₹34, with an FY26 EPS of ₹1.57, Moneyview is trading at a P/E of 21.66x, while OnEMI trades at a P/E of 19.1, and Bajaj Finance trades at 30.1x.

Key Risks

  • Gross Stage 3 Loans nearly tripled in two years: from ~1% of Total Gross Loans in FY24 to ~3% in FY26. These are loans overdue by more than 90 days, and these keep climbing, provisioning and write-offs would follow.
  • CEO Incentive Item: The one-time ₹160 Cr CEO incentive and a ₹47 Cr cyber fraud loss together cut FY26’s pre-tax profit by ~₹207 Cr. This may sour some investors’ outlook on the company.
  • Hit by Cyber Fraud: The cyber fraud exposed a gap in WFPL’s banking API security. Unknown external parties exploited the API to withdraw money from WFPL’s bank account; with minimal amount recovered so far.
  • AUM is concentrated in South India: The region accounted for ~37% of Managed AUM as of June 2026. A regional economic shock or regulatory action concentrated in the south would have an outsized effect on the loan book.
  • Regulatory scrutiny during IPO process: Since filing its DRHP, Moneyview has received complaints to SEBI and its bankers alleging violations of RBI’s Digital Lending Directions and breaches of user privacy during collections.

Conclusion

Moneyview is the largest full-stack digital lending platform in India by AUM, growing its loan book and income at a fast clip while its per-unit economics and cost ratios have improved every year through FY26. But, Gross Stage 3 loans have climbed sharply, and FY26’s profit carries a massive one-off charge that may raise eyebrows.
