PB Fintech cofounders Yashish Dahiya and Alok Bansal have collectively sold 38 lakh shares through block deals, raising approximately ₹665.4 crore. The transaction comes amid continued investor interest in the company and follows a recent exit by one of its early backers.
Yashish Dahiya sold 26 lakh shares at ₹1,751 per share, generating proceeds of ₹455.3 crore. Meanwhile, Alok Bansal offloaded 12 lakh shares at the same price, securing ₹210.1 crore from the transaction.
Notably, the stake sale follows Tencent’s complete exit from the insurtech company. The Chinese technology giant recently divested its entire 1.05% holding in PB Fintech for ₹805.4 crore. Institutional investors, including Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and Tata Mutual Fund, acquired the shares.
The block deal price represented a 2.8% premium over PB Fintech’s previous closing price on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). Despite the latest dilution, both cofounders continue to hold significant stakes in the company. As of March 2026, Dahiya owns 1.8 crore shares, representing a 3.86% stake, while Bansal holds 53.8 lakh shares, equivalent to 1.2% ownership.
This is not the first time the founders have monetized a portion of their holdings. In June 2025, Dahiya and Bansal sold shares worth nearly ₹920 crore. The latest transaction reflects a broader trend of profit-booking by promoters and investors as PB Fintech’s stock has delivered strong gains in recent months.
Over the past three months, PB Fintech shares have climbed more than 15.5%. However, the stock remains under pressure on a year-to-date basis, declining more than 6% despite the recent rally.
On the financial front, PB Fintech reported strong earnings growth for the fourth quarter of FY26. The company posted a 54% increase in consolidated net profit, reaching ₹261.2 crore compared to the corresponding period last year. Additionally, operating revenue rose 37% year-on-year to ₹2,061 crore, highlighting continued momentum across its business segments.
Despite the positive financial performance, PB Fintech shares closed at ₹1,702.5 in the latest trading session, down 4.56%.
The latest block deal by PB Fintech cofounders Yashish Dahiya and Alok Bansal underscores ongoing profit-taking amid strong institutional demand for the company’s shares. While the transaction follows Tencent’s recent exit and marks another round of promoter stake dilution, the founders continue to retain meaningful ownership in the business. Backed by robust revenue growth and rising profitability, PB Fintech remains a closely watched player in India’s rapidly evolving insurtech and fintech landscape.
