Paytm Q2 Net Profit Surges Over Tenfold with 28% Revenue Growth
Paytm reported a significant increase in its Q2 FY27 net profit, rising over tenfold year-on-year to approximately Rs 225 crore, supported by a 28% growth in operating revenue to Rs 2,648 crore. The company attributed this performance to higher payment transaction volumes, merchant subscriptions, and financial services distribution. EBITDA margin expanded to 10%, reflecting improved operating leverage. Despite strong revenue growth, net profit slightly missed some brokerage expectations. Paytm also saw growth in UPI transaction value and monthly active users, driven by AI-led personalization and product enhancements.
