JM Financial Receives SEBI Warning Letter: Q4FY24 Revenue Sees Significant Growth
JM Financial, a prominent investment banking firm, has recently come under scrutiny from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). The regulatory body issued an administrative warning letter to JM Financial in relation to certain past public issuances of non-convertible debentures (NCDs), where the company served as one of the lead managers.
SEBI conducted an inspection and identified discrepancies in due diligence, documentation recording, and disclosures related to these past public issuances. As a result, JM Financial has been advised by SEBI to take appropriate corrective steps and submit an action taken report.
Despite this warning, JM Financial has reassured stakeholders that there has been no disruption to financial operations or other activities. The company reported impressive financial results for Q4 FY24, with a revenue of Rs. 1,276 crore, representing a 46% increase year-on-year. The total revenue for FY24 stood at Rs. 4,832 crores, a 45% increase over the previous year.
Additionally, JM Financial’s profit after tax (PAT) for the investment bank segment saw a significant increase of 90% in FY24. This strong performance has led to the company reporting its highest annual operating revenue ever.
On the stock market front, JM Financial’s stock closed at Rs 83.50 per share, showing a slight decrease from the previous close. Despite the SEBI warning, JM Financial remains optimistic about its future prospects and is committed to addressing the regulatory concerns raised.
Overall, JM Financial’s ability to navigate through regulatory challenges while maintaining strong financial performance showcases its resilience and commitment to excellence in the investment banking sector. Investors and stakeholders can continue to monitor the company’s progress as it works towards addressing the SEBI warning and driving further growth in the future.
