India’s banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI) industry has grown 50-fold in market capitalisation in the last twenty years, reaching Rs. 91,00,000 crore (US$ 1 trillion) by 2025 from Rs. 1,80,000 crore (US$ 20.28 billion) in 2005, as per a report by Bajaj Finserv Asset Management Company (AMC). The sector currently accounts for 27% of India’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP), up from 6% two decades back, having expanded at a compound annual growth rate of 22%, fueled by robust credit growth, enhanced balance sheets, and the financialization of savings. Banks still hold a 57% share of the BFSI market capitalisation, decreasing from 85% in 2005, as non-banking financial companies (NBFCs), fintechs, asset management companies (AMCs), and insurers rise in significance. The sector’s robust fundamentals are clear, with gross Non-Performing Assets (NPAs) decreasing from 5.8% in FY22 to 2.2% in FY25, while credit costs have gone down from 1.3% to 0.4%. The research emphasizes that BFSI stocks have continually outshined the wider market, as the Nifty Financial Services Index has outpaced the Nifty 50 in each significant recovery period, such as the 2009 rebound after the crisis, the 2014 election surge, and the 2021 rise following COVID. NBFCs have become vital credit providers, growing their net worth at a 15% Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) and Profit after Tax (PAT) at 31.7% CAGR, presently accounting for 18% of overall BFSI earnings.
