Swastika Investmart Q1 FY26: JustTrade or Just Stuck?

Swastika Investmart Q1 FY26: JustTrade or Just Stuck?

1. At a Glance

Revenue down 31.6% YoY, profit nosedives 47%, yet ROCE still punches in at a sexy 32.6%. Promoters are back, stake up by 4.86%, and they’ve renamed their CTO to CTSO. No kidding.


2. Introduction with Hook

Imagine if Zerodha, Angel One, and a slightly confused family office had a child in Indore — you’d get Swastika Investmart. It’s a one-stop hybrid: broking app, insurance arm, algo trading suite, startup mentoring, and an EdTech vertical because why not?

  • Revenue Q1 FY26: ₹26.3 Cr (vs ₹38.5 Cr YoY) → -31.65%
  • Net Profit Q1 FY26: ₹3.29 Cr (vs ₹6.27 Cr YoY) → -47.53%
  • JustTrade app, HelloPolicy.com, Venture capital biz, and SME IPO advisory all under one chhatri.

3. Business Model (WTF Do They Even Do?)

8-in-1 FinHub Model:

  1. Stock Broking → Mobile App JustTrade 2.0
  2. Tradingo Web Platform → Commodities, Forex
  3. Investment Banking → SME IPOs, M&As
  4. Algo & HFT Trading → Retail + Institutions
  5. Loan against Securities → Low-cost credit
  6. Insurance DistributionHelloPolicy portal
  7. EdTech arm → Financial learning
  8. Startup Funding + Mentoring

They’re like the Swiss Army Knife of Capital Markets — only with a slightly duller blade in Q1 FY26.

  • Q1 FY26 = Weak.

Commentary:
For a microcap, Swastika punches well above its weight in profitability metrics. But scale is tiny. They’re playing in the Angel One stadium with a tennis racket.


12. Miscellaneous – Shareholding, Promoters

Holder% (Jun 2025)
Promoter59.88% (up from 55.02%)
FII0.00%
Public40.13%
No. of Shareholders5,078

Interesting:

  • Promoters buying back → Confidence booster
  • No FII/Institutional interest yet
  • Preferential allotment of 27.85 lakh shares → Dilutive, but used for growth

13. EduInvesting Verdict™

Swastika Investmart is Ambitious AF — broking app, lending biz, VC support, EdTech, algo trading, SME IPOs — all on one plate. But Q1 FY26 stumbled like an intern carrying chai during budget day.

Promoters increasing stake = green flag.
Negative cash flow = yellow flag.
Topline drop = red flag.

EduInvesting Verdict™:
Potential fintech phoenix or confused octopus? Jury’s out. Monitor next 2 quarters like SEBI watches Telegram pump-n-dump channels.
