NDA Securities Ltd Q3 FY26 – ₹1.21 Cr Revenue, EPS -0.87, Promoter Reset & Capital Market Chaos in a ₹17.7 Cr Microcap
1. At a Glance – Blink and You’ll Miss It
This is a ₹17.7 Cr market cap company trying to look confident in a capital market jungle dominated by discount brokers with billion-dollar balance sheets and zero patience. NDA Securities Ltd closed the latest quarter (Dec 2025) with ₹1.21 Cr revenue, PAT of -₹0.52 Cr, and an EPS of -₹0.87. The stock trades around ₹29.7, down ~26% in three months, while still wearing a trailing P/E of ~110 like a fake Gucci belt bought from Sarojini.
Promoters hold 58.82%, debt is low (₹0.27 Cr as of Sep 2025), ROCE shows ~15%, but quarterly profitability has gone on a long vacation without leaving a forwarding address. Add to this: open offer, promoter change, MD resignation, new MD appointment, authorised capital jump from ₹15 Cr to ₹100 Cr, and you have a microcap that feels less like a calm investment and more like a daily soap with cliffhangers every week. Curious yet? You should be.
2. Introduction – Welcome to the Broker Who Blinked
Founded in 1992, NDA Securities has seen Harshad Mehta, Ketan Parekh, IRCTC listings, Zerodha wars, and now AI trading influencers on Instagram. Through all this, the company stuck to classic broking: equities, derivatives, IPO applications, demat services, and SEBI-registered research.
But here’s the uncomfortable truth: old-school broking is a brutally competitive business. When brokerage trends toward zero and client acquisition is subsidised by venture capital money, micro brokers either scale fast, niche hard, or slowly fade into PDF annual reports nobody reads. NDA Securities seems stuck between “trying” and “transforming.”
FY25 revenue stood at ₹7.63 Cr, but TTM sales slipped to ₹6.07 Cr, and the latest quarter shows de-growth. Meanwhile, the company’s management structure was being rearranged like furniture during a house fire. New promoters, new MD, new WTD, new authorised capital. Sounds exciting. Or desperate. Or both. Which one is it? Let’s dig.
3. Business Model – WTF Do They Even Do?
NDA Securities is a full-service retail broker, the kind your uncle used before discount brokers made brokerage cheaper than chai.
Core offerings:
Equity, F&O, derivatives trading
IPO subscriptions, mutual fund distribution
Depository (Demat) services via NSDL
Margin trading
SEBI-registered equity research
Revenue mix (FY25):
Sale of Services – ~81% (brokerage, fees)
Profit on sale of investment property – ~8%
Interest income (FDs + clearing member) – ~10% combined
Mutual fund commissions – ~1%
Geographically, Delhi (52%) and Maharashtra (31%) dominate revenues. That concentration is fine—until markets slow, volumes dry up, or clients migrate to flashy apps promising “options income daily.”
The problem? This business does not scale linearly without technology and distribution muscle. Discount brokers burn cash for growth. NDA Securities must earn every rupee. That’s like bringing a calculator to a gunfight.
4. Financials Overview – Numbers Don’t Lie, They Just Roast You
Commentary: Revenue fell. Costs didn’t get the memo. EBITDA went negative. PAT followed like a loyal sidekick. This is not volatility—this is structural stress.
