JFSL hits lower circuit

The long-awaited company of RIL group, Jio Financial Services, has finally hit the market and just in some time it hit the lower circuit. The exchange-derived price of the company was Rs 261.85 per share and it got listed on NSE at Rs 262 per share. However, it witnessed profit booking and some concerns regarding valuation which led to selling pressure on the share and it hit a lower circuit. Reliance is known to disrupt the industry in which it enteres, be it telecom or retail. It is believed that the company may use a similar playbook in the financial sector also but it might face constraints in the form of various rules, regulations and scrutiny from RBI as well as SEBI.

The company is stated to provide various services such as loans to consumers as well as MSMEs, payment solutions, insurance and even asset management. In the asset management space, it has entered into a 50-50 partnership with Blackrock. After the spin-off, JFSL has become the 33rd biggest company in India with a market cap of Rs 1.68 lakh crore.
