ICICI Prudential Asset Management Company Limited (AMC), a cornerstone of the Indian financial landscape, has officially announced its financial performance for the quarter and nine-month period ended December 31, 2025. The results underscore a period of exceptional growth and resilience, highlighted by a significant surge in profitability and assets under management. The company reported an Operating Profit Before Tax (PBT) of Rs 30.43 billion for the nine months, representing a remarkable year-on-year increase of 28.4 per cent. This performance reflects not only the favourable market conditions but also the firm’s disciplined approach to operational management and its ability to capture a larger slice of the expanding Indian investment market.
The cornerstone of this growth lies in the company’s massive Quarterly Average Assets Under Management (QAAUM). For the quarter ended December 31, 2025, the total Mutual Fund QAAUM reached an impressive Rs 10,763.80 billion, commanding a total market share of 13.3 per cent. To put this into perspective, this is a substantial leap from the Rs 8,739.58 billion recorded during the same quarter in 2024. A closer look at the asset classes reveals that Actively Managed assets stood at Rs 9,088.89 billion, while Equity & Equity-oriented schemes accounted for Rs 6,081.44 billion. One of the most striking figures is in the Equity-Oriented Hybrid segment, where the company holds a dominant 26.3 per cent market share with Rs 2,084.11 billion in assets, proving that investors continue to trust the firm for balanced, risk-adjusted growth.
Beyond traditional mutual funds, ICICI Prudential AMC has shown significant strength in its "Alternates" and advisory portfolio. The Alternates QAAUM reached Rs 752.76 billion by the end of December 2025. This segment is diversified across Portfolio Management Services (PMS) at Rs 272.81 billion, Alternative Investment Funds (AIF) at Rs 159.09 billion, and Assets under Advisory at Rs 320.86 billion. This diversification strategy allows the firm to cater to high-net-worth individuals and institutional clients looking for sophisticated investment vehicles beyond the retail mutual fund spectrum. Furthermore, the retail appetite for disciplined investing remains at an all-time high, evidenced by monthly systematic transactions rising to Rs 50.37 billion in December 2025, a healthy jump from the Rs 42.47 billion seen a year prior.
From a purely financial perspective, the growth across all profitability metrics is robust. For the nine-month period ending December 31, 2025, the Profit After Tax (PAT) stood at Rs 25,348.4 million, a sharp rise from the Rs 19,589.5 million reported in the previous year. Looking specifically at the October–December quarter, the momentum stayed strong; the Profit After Tax for the single quarter was Rs 9,170.9 million, compared to Rs 6,318.4 million in the corresponding quarter of 2024. These figures indicate that the company is successfully converting its increased scale into tangible returns for its shareholders, maintaining high margins even as it expands its footprint and services.
This financial success is built upon a massive and growing foundation of human capital and distribution infrastructure. The company now boasts over 16.17 million unique customers, an increase of nearly 2 million individuals in just one year. This vast client base is serviced by more than 3,500 dedicated employees and a network of 278 offices nationwide. Perhaps most impressive is the distribution strength: ICICI Prudential AMC works with over 1,12,000 empanelled distribution partners, including Mutual Fund Distributors (MFDs), National Distributors, and major Banks. This "omni-channel" approach ensures that the company's investment products are accessible to everyone, from first-time investors in Tier-3 cities to seasoned investors in major financial hubs.
Looking ahead, ICICI Prudential AMC remains committed to its core philosophy of "managing risk first." With over 30 years of history since its incorporation in 1993, the company has navigated various market cycles by focusing on long-term wealth creation rather than short-term gains. By offering a comprehensive suite of products—ranging from income accrual funds to aggressive equity schemes—it addresses a diverse spectrum of risk appetites and financial objectives. As the Indian economy continues to formalise and financial literacy grows, the firm’s steady hand and transparent investment processes position it as a primary beneficiary of the country's ongoing "financialization of savings" trend.
