KFin more than a proxy MF play
Mint Ahmedabad|December 27, 2024
Dominating factor Kfin's smaller revenue streams are showing strong growth, but that's currently being overshadowed by the booming domestic MF
Manish Joshi

Shares of KFin Technologies Ltd hit a new lifetime high of ₹1,620 apiece on Thursday, marking a meteoric rise from its lacklustre debut in December 2022 at ₹364, slightly below its public issue price of ₹366. The stock has more than quadrupled since then, a sharp reversal after languishing below its issue price for nearly six months. What has sparked this dramatic turnaround?

Perhaps, the market's realization that KFin's business as a registrar and transfer agent (RTA) offers a proxy play on the mutual fund (MF) industry. With only two dominant players—KFin and Computer Age Management Services Ltd (CAMS)—the sector presents a significant growth opportunity. KFin's market capitalization has surpassed that of CAMS, which services over two-thirds of the total MF industry's assets under management (AUM). Since KFin's listing, its shares have surged 300%, compared to CAMS's 100% gains. Is this surge justified?
