Revenue & Sales Performance

Slow growth
  • CDSL emphasizes long-term sustainable growth rather than quarter-on-quarter spikes, focusing on creating continuous value for stakeholders.
  • Revenue growth is influenced by market volumes and activity, as CDSL operates as a market infrastructure company.
  • The folio count grew by 17% YoY, though unlisted revenue saw a dip; regulatory intent is to increase company participation over time.
  • KYC revenues face pricing resets and volume fluctuations; recent Search API charges help offset some pricing impacts.
  • Technology expenses are expected to be ongoing due to evolving regulatory requirements and market needs, with no clear peak in spend.
