BSE Q2 FY27: Profit +45% to ₹808 Cr, Margin ~68%

📊 Exchange stocks back in focus! BSE Q2 FY27 numbers show how strongly market activity is flowing into exchange earnings. Consolidated net profit rose about 45% YoY to roughly ₹808 Cr, while revenue grew about 34% YoY to around ₹1,433 Cr. EBITDA margin expanded to nearly 68% from about 64% a year ago. On a QoQ basis, though, profit was down about 7% and derivatives premium turnover fell about 24%, even as it was up about 50% YoY. The stock rose over 6% intraday on 5 Nov after the results. In this opinion, let's understand: ✅ What drove the 45% profit jump – equity cash and derivatives activity ✅ Why ~68% EBITDA margin shows strong operating leverage in the exchange model ✅ The QoQ slowdown in premium turnover and what it signals ✅ Key risks: F&O regulatory changes, competition, and sustainability of high margins ✅ How BSE's model compares with other capital-market plays like MCX and CDSL 💬 Your view: Can exchange earnings keep growing if F&O volumes stay under regulatory pressure?
