Analysts Maintain Buy Ratings on Max Financial Services with Revised Targets
Max Financial Services received 'Buy' ratings from Nomura and Prabhudas Lilladher, with target prices adjusted slightly to Rs 2,000 and Rs 2,025 respectively. Both reports highlight strong value of new business (VNB) margin expansion to around 27%, driven by favorable product mix and growth in annuity and protection segments. While annualized premium equivalent (APE) growth estimates were moderated due to high base effects, both expect continued momentum supported by new product launches and distribution diversification. Regulatory discussions on distribution reforms remain ongoing.
