Jio Platforms Q2 results 2026 review
Jio Platforms reported a 14% year-on-year (YoY) rise in consolidated net profit to ₹8,389 crore for the September quarter, marking its first quarterly earnings announcement since its stock market listing earlier this week. The growth was driven by strong subscriber additions, expansion in its digital services business and a modest improvement in average revenue per user (ARPU).
Revenue from operations increased 11% YoY to ₹40,475 crore from ₹36,332 crore in the corresponding quarter last year. On a quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) basis, net profit grew 8% from ₹7,765 crore reported in the June quarter, while revenue registered a 3% increase.
The company’s EBITDA rose 17% YoY during the quarter, supported by higher revenue, operating leverage and improved margins. EBITDA margin expanded by 250 basis points to 54.1%. Meanwhile, ARPU edged up to ₹218.8 in Q2, as promotional offers for fixed broadband customers partially offset the benefits of a favourable subscriber mix and increased data usage.
On the operational front, monthly per-user data consumption stood at 44.2 GB, while overall data traffic increased 22% YoY during the September quarter. Monthly subscriber churn remained stable at 1.6%, and Jio added 9.1 million net subscribers during the period.
At the end of September, Jio’s 5G subscriber base reached 300 million, marking an addition of 66 million users over the past 12 months. Customer engagement remained robust, with 5G users accounting for 56% of the company’s total wireless data traffic.
