Management Commentary
Ms. Divya Nandwana, Executive Chairperson, Vakrangee Limited, said:
“FY2026 represents the successful orchestration of a fundamental shift in our business architecture, where we have successfully transitioned from a volume-based model to a highquality, margin-accretive ecosystem. Our PAT growth of 79.3% to ₹11.1 crore is also a reflection of our ability to extract superior value from our physical-plus-digital infrastructure. With ₹63.7 crore Cash generated from operations (pre-tax), the company has also significantly strengthened its liquidity profile, supporting a total cash and bank balance of ₹56.9 crore as of March 31, 2026.
By strategically integrating loans and insurance services, we are synthesizing a high-margin service stack that addresses the complex financial needs of the underserved. During the year, we made deliberate moves to deepen the strategic value of our network, b roadening our insurance & loan suite.
Furthermore, Vortex Engineering has emerged as a deep-tech pillar of the Group, with 15,435 ATMs shipped and a portfolio of 9 patents that anchor our position as a differentiated, IP-led technology leader. With a growing export footprint across 50+ countries , Vortex is increasingly a standalone growth engine for the Group.
With our asset-light model, a debt-free balance sheet, and a sharpening focus on higher-value financial services, we are entering our next phase of growth from a position of real operational and strategic strength.”

Mr. Vedant Nandwana, Managing Director, Vakrangee Limited, said:
“The primary achievement of FY2026 is the significant optimization of our platform’s unit economics, resulting in a Cash Profit of ₹28.7 crore, a 25.4% increase that shows our cashgenerating capabilities. The shift from negative to positive Operating Cash Flow also demonstrates the operating leverage inherent in the platform as it pivots toward high-value, non-cash financial services. We are now processing ₹53,713 crore in Gross Transaction Value with enhanced efficiency, as we deliberately pivot our revenue mix toward non-cash BFSI services that carry structurally higher margins. This strategic migration away from legacy cash-led categories is visible in our 249-basis point EBITDA margin expansion to 13.4% . With 84% of our 23,087 outlets strategically positioned in Tier IV–VI markets, we are focused on our profitability by deepening service penetration across an existing, high-capacity network that remains entirely debt-free. These non-banking financial products carry meaningfully better unit economics than our legacy cash-handling business, and as their share grows, the margin profile of the entire platform improves structurally.
Looking ahead, our expansion track is straightforward: take 23,087 outlets, deepen the per-outlet revenue through higher-value services, and compound that across a network that we believe has significant untapped capacity. With a debt-free foundation, growing annuity income streams, and a disciplined capital allocation approach, we are confident in Vakrangee’s ability to grow profitability & cash generation going into the next financial year.”
Mr. Aditya Jani, Chief Financial Officer, Vakrangee Limited, said:
“FY26 represents a decisive step-up in Vakrangee’s financial performance. Cash Profit grew 25.4% to ₹28.7 crore, the most important indicator of operating health, while PAT more than doubled in trajectory, rising 79.3% to ₹11.1 crore on the back of a 61.4% improvement in PBT to ₹15.2 crore. EBITDA expanded from ₹27.9 crore to ₹34.3 crore, with EBITDA margin improving 249 basis points to 13.4%, demonstrating the operating leverage embedded in this model.
Crucially, we achieved this expansion while maintaining a zero-debt balance sheet , providing the Group with the absolute financial flexibility required to reinvest internal accruals into high-yield growth opportunities. As our revenue mix continues to favor credit, insurance, and specialized BFSI services, we expect this margin tailwind to strengthen, positioning the company for a sustained period of durable, asset-light compounding and superior returns on equity. We are managing this business for durable cash generation, profitability, and building returns, and FY26 affirms we are on the right trajectory.”
Expansion of Higher-Margin Financial Services
A key strategic priority during the year remained the continued shift toward higher-margin, noncash BFSI offerings, including account opening, loans, insurance, mutual funds, fixed deposits and other value-added services. This progression is important for the Vakrangee model, as it gradually reduces dependence on lower-margin cash-led categories and supports a more resilient and profitable operating profile. The Company’s recent actions in insurance and insurance provide tangible proof of this direction.

During Q4 FY26, Vakrangee announced a strategic alliance with Tyger Capital and Tyger Home Finance Private Limited to facilitate lead generation for loan products across its Vakrangee Kendra network. The initiative is aimed at improving access to finance in financially unserved and underserved markets, while supporting home ownership, asset creation and broader credit inclusion.
Also, during Q4 FY26, Vakrangee entered into a strategic corporate agency arrangement with Bajaj General Insurance Limited to offer a broad suite of general insurance products across its network, including health, motor, home and travel insurance. This partnership broadens the Company’s insurance offering and strengthens its ability to serve retail, rural, SME and other customer segments through its last-mile network.
Subsequent to year-end , on April 10, 2026 , Vakrangee also announced a partnership with IndiaFirst Life Insurance Company Limited to offer life insurance solutions through its Vakrangee Kendras. This development further expands the Company’s insurance portfolio and supports deeper penetration of protection-oriented financial products across underserved markets.
Taken together, these developments reinforce Vakrangee’s stated strategy of building a broader, more relevant and potentially higher-value financial services ecosystem on top of its physical distribution platform.

Vortex Engineering
Vortex Engineering continued to strengthen Vakrangee’s strategic profile during FY26 driven by increased ATM machine shipments and growth in its software business. Rather than being a peripheral subsidiary, Vortex supports Vakrangee’s long-term positioning as a platform combining distribution reach with technology ownership. The addition of Mr. Manjunath Rao during the year further enhances this trajectory, bringing over 34 years of leadership experience across enterprise sales, managed services, banking technology and senior operating roles, thereby strengthening Vortex’s business development and market execution capabilities.
During the year, Vortex continued to benefit from demand visibility in ATM and banking automation, while its annuity-led AMC base and software-led offerings, including Perfo®, supported its broader profitability profile. Vortex is presently positioned around revenue growth, ATM shipment momentum, IP-led scalability, “Make in India” capability and export potential.
