Why is Bajaj Finance share price rising on 5 October 2026?

Bajaj Finance gained 2.29% to ₹970.00 by 3:15 pm IST on 5 October 2026, following its September-quarter business update released on 3 October. The growth in assets under management gives investors a concrete operating development to assess. A larger lending book can support interest income, although its effect on profit depends on margins, funding costs and credit losses.

The stock had eased from the day’s ₹995.25 high but remained above the ₹964.25 low. The price shown here is the last available intraday reading at 3:15 pm IST, rather than a verified official closing price.

1.23 crore shares traded by 5 October 2026 · 03:15 PM IST. This compares with a 20-day average daily volume of 63.10 lakh shares (1.95 times). The five-day average daily volume was 68.22 lakh shares. Separately, the NSE report for 1 October 2026 showed 33.84 lakh shares delivered, representing 59.38% of that day’s traded volume. The same report recorded 188,076 trades.

Likely Reason
Q2 operating growth is the main company-specific development

The business update preceded the rally and provides a plausible explanation for investor interest. The final quarterly results will show how operating growth translates into earnings.
