Manappuram Finance share price touched a new all-time high of ₹323.80 during Wednesday’s intraday trade, rising about 3% despite a weak broader market. The stock crossed its previous record of ₹320.95 set on 1 January 2026. 

In the past month, the stock has surged nearly 20%, significantly outperforming the BSE Sensex, which declined about 4.4% in the same period. 

By around midday, the stock was trading over 2% higher while the broader market remained flat to negative. Around 3.73 million shares changed hands across exchanges, showing strong investor interest. 

Gold Loan Business Driving Growth 

  • Strong growth in the gold loan segment
  • Gold loans becoming the dominant part of the loan book
  • Plans to open 500–550 new branches in high-growth markets  

Improvement in Non-Gold Segments 

The company has taken a cautious approach to non-gold businesses by focusing on asset quality instead of aggressive growth. Early signs of improvement are now visible, and growth in these segments is expected to gradually pick up. 

Margins are also expected to stabilise as funding costs settle and yields reach their bottom.
