Bajaj Finance Rs 1,111.25 (12 Nov, 11:56 AM), up 3.01%. Day high Rs 1,118. QIP Rs 11,700 Cr. Floor Rs 992.25. Indicative Rs 1,025. Q2 profit Rs 6,367 Cr.
Quick Answer
Bajaj Finance stock touched Rs 1,118 on the NSE on 12 November 2026 and was at Rs 1,111.25 at 11:56 AM, up 3.01% from the previous close of Rs 1,078.80. The company opened a QIP of up to Rs 11,700 crore on 11 November at a floor price of Rs 992.25, with a discount of up to 5% allowed and an indicative issue price of Rs 1,025. That adds about 11.4 crore new shares, or roughly 1.8% dilution, while strengthening a capital adequacy ratio that eased to 20.33% in September. The stock is already about 17% above its 1 October level, so the next move depends on the final issue price.

What Is the Bajaj Finance QIP? Key Terms at a Glance
A qualified institutional placement lets a listed company sell new shares directly to institutions such as mutual funds, insurers and foreign investors, without a public offer. The floor price is calculated under SEBI rules, and the company can offer a discount of up to 5% on it.
| Detail | Bajaj Finance fundraise |
|---|---|
| Total fundraise approved by board (1 Oct 2026) | Up to Rs 17,500 crore |
| QIP size | Up to Rs 11,700 crore |

| Warrants to promoter | 5,74,25,740 warrants at Rs 1,010 each (Rs 5,800 crore) to Bajaj Finserv |
| Advisors reported | Kotak Mahindra Capital, JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley |
Floor Price, Discount and Returns: How the Numbers Compare
The floor price looks low only because SEBI’s formula uses an average of recent prices, and Bajaj Finance shares have rallied since the board meeting. The Bajaj Finance QIP floor price of Rs 992.25 sits 8.0% below the previous close, and the indicative price of Rs 1,025 sits 5.0% below it.
| Reference price | Rs per share | Versus previous close (Rs 1,078.80) | Versus current Rs 1,111.25 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lowest possible issue price (5% off floor) | 942.64 | Down 12.6% | Down 15.2% |
| QIP floor price | 992.25 | Down 8.0% | Down 10.7% |
| Indicative issue price | 1,025.00 | Down 5.0% | Down 7.8% |
| Warrant price to Bajaj Finserv | 1,010.00 | Down 6.4% | Down 9.1% |
| 1 October 2026 close (board approval day) | 948.30 | Down 12.1% | Down 14.7% |
Institutions that get Bajaj Finance shares near Rs 1,025 are already sitting on a paper gain of about 8% at the current price. Existing holders of Bajaj Finance shares have gained about 17% since 1 October, when the stock closed at Rs 948.30.
How Much Will the Bajaj Finance QIP Dilute Shareholders?
For Bajaj Finance stock, the QIP at the indicative price of Rs 1,025 would add about 11.4 crore new shares. On a base of about 620 crore existing shares (a Univest estimate), that is roughly 1.8% dilution, rising to about 2.0% if the full 5% discount is used. Warrant conversion would add about 5.74 crore shares, or around 0.9%, over time.
The promoter is taking part in the Bajaj Finance QIP package, which limits the fall in its stake. Bajaj Finserv holds 54.67% of Bajaj Finance as of September 2026 and is subscribing to Rs 5,800 crore of warrants at Rs 1,010. In the November 2023 round the company raised Rs 10,000 crore, so this is a larger raise than the last one, and that backing is a plus for Bajaj Finance stock.
Why Is Bajaj Finance Stock Rising on the QIP Launch?
Bajaj Finance stock is rising because the market sees the new equity as fuel for a lender that is growing fast. Management raised its FY27 AUM growth guidance to 26% to 27% from 22% to 24%, and AUM reached about Rs 5.85 lakh crore, up 26.5% year on year.
Growth uses capital. The capital adequacy ratio fell to 20.33% in September from 20.90% in June and 21.23% a year earlier, and Motilal Oswal noted after Q2 that the capital raise would offset organic NIM pressure. The Bajaj Finance QIP gives a bigger cushion, so the company can keep lending without leaning on borrowings.
Bajaj Finance Q2 FY27 Results at a Glance
| Metric | Q2 FY27 | Q2 FY26 | YoY change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | Rs 24,575.82 crore | Rs 19,992.38 crore | Up 22.9% |
| Net profit | Rs 6,366.57 crore | Rs 4,947.76 crore | Up 28.7% |
| Net profit margin | 25.64% | 24.54% | Up 1.10 points |
| EPS (diluted) | Rs 10.05 | Rs 7.83 | Up 28.4% |
| Net interest income | Rs 13,335 crore | NA | Up 24% |
The Q2 numbers help explain the institutional demand for Bajaj Finance shares. Profit growth was in line with Nomura’s estimates, yet Bajaj Finance stock fell about 3% on 21 October as brokerages trimmed some targets. Jefferies pointed to gold-loan stress, flexi-loan terms and insurance distribution fees as the pressure points.

Bajaj Finance Share Price Target: What Brokerages Said After Q2
Every post-Q2 brokerage target sits above the current level, but these calls were made when the stock traded near Rs 920 to Rs 960, so the room to the targets has narrowed. They also predate the QIP launch, and brokerages may revise them once the issue price is final.
| Brokerage | Rating | Target price | Implied upside from Rs 1,111.25 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Motilal Oswal | Buy | Rs 1,250 | 12.5% |
| Jefferies | Buy (target cut from Rs 1,280) | Rs 1,230 | 10.7% |
| Nuvama Institutional Equities | Buy | Rs 1,175 | 5.7% |
| Prabhudas Lilladher | Buy | Rs 1,150 | 3.5% |
Jefferies trimmed its target after lowering the valuation multiple on adjusted book value, while Motilal Oswal and Nuvama stayed positive on the Bajaj Finance stock outlook. Nuvama’s Rs 1,175 leaves only about 6% upside from here.
Technical View: Where Does Bajaj Finance Stock Stand?
Bajaj Finance stock is stretched in the short term. The 14-day RSI is 84.8, well above the 70 overbought line, and the price is about 12.5% above its 20-day simple moving average of Rs 987.27. The 20-day EMA is Rs 1,014.71.
Momentum in Bajaj Finance shares is still positive, with the MACD line at 28.88 above its signal line at 9.88, and the SuperTrend indicator at Rs 998.43 acts as the trend floor. Near-term resistance is the day high of Rs 1,118, then the SuperTrend upper band near Rs 1,158.67 and the 52-week high of Rs 1,176.40. Support sits at the previous close of Rs 1,078.80 and the indicative QIP price of Rs 1,025.

Should You Buy Bajaj Finance Shares After the QIP?
The case for Bajaj Finance shares is growth backed by fresh capital. Net profit rose 29% in Q2, ROE is 17.61%, AUM growth guidance moved up, and the Bajaj Finance QIP plus warrants add up to Rs 17,500 crore of capacity for lending. Four brokerages in the table above hold Buy ratings.
The case against Bajaj Finance stock is price and dilution. A PE of 30.33 against an industry PE of 17.75, a price to book of 5.43, a debt to equity ratio of 4.08 and an RSI near 85 leave little margin after a 17% run. New shares priced at about Rs 1,025 also cap the stock near term if institutions book gains. This is not investment advice, and a SEBI-registered advisor can match the stock to your horizon and risk appetite.

Key Risks for Bajaj Finance Stock
Margins are the first risk for Bajaj Finance shares. Motilal Oswal pointed to net interest margin contracting about 9 basis points quarter on quarter, and Jefferies flagged gold-loan stress. If credit costs rise or funding costs stay elevated, profit growth could slow just as the share base gets larger.
Institutional ownership is the second. FII holding eased from 21.33% in March 2026 to 19.79% in September 2026, and DII holding rose from 15.18% to 17.05%. If the Bajaj Finance QIP is absorbed mainly by domestic institutions, foreign holding could fall further, and any delay or weak demand in the book could pressure Bajaj Finance stock.
Conclusion
The Bajaj Finance share price rally rests on a well-received Bajaj Finance QIP, a Rs 992.25 floor price, an indicative issue price near Rs 1,025 and Q2 numbers that showed profit up 29%. At the same time, an RSI near 85, a PE above 30 and roughly 2% dilution mean the easy part of the move may be behind it. The next triggers are the final QIP issue price and allocation, any revision of brokerage targets and whether the stock holds above Rs 1,078.80.
