According to reports, Paytm’s adjusted net loss is expected to narrow significantly to ₹126.63 crore in Q1FY26 from ₹838.9 crore a year ago, while revenue is expected to grow 31% to ₹1,968.15 crore.

Paytm’s stock is showing signs of a potential breakout ahead of its results, said SEBI-registered analyst Rohit Mehta.

The stock is currently forming a bullish cup and handle pattern near the key resistance zone of ₹1,053, and a sustained move above this level could open the door to further upside, he added.

With support in the ₹446 - ₹518 range, all eyes are on earnings to trigger directional momentum.

The shares ended nearly 2% higher at 1,020.50 on Monday.

The consolidation near resistance suggests strength, but confirmation is needed with volume and price action. The all-time high at ₹1,955.75 remains a long-term target, but near-term movement will depend heavily on the upcoming financial performance, Mehta said.

On the fundamental front, it’s a mixed bag. While Paytm remains virtually debt-free and has a strong 10-year median sales growth of 24.9%, it struggles with negative returns. Its ROE stands at -10.8% over the past three years.

The company trades at 4.25x its book value, reflecting elevated valuations. Foreign investors holding (FII) declined slightly to 54.87% in June 2025, while DIIs (domestic investors) increased their stake to 15.84%.

If Q1 FY26 shows further operational improvement, it may provide the catalyst that bulls have been waiting for. Until then, traders should keep an eye on the ₹1,053 level for signs of a breakout, he concluded.
