✦ AI-Generated from Full Transcript
Aavas Financiers reported a solid Q4 FY26 with net profit of ₹1.82B (+18% YoY) and revenue of ₹234.5B (+15% YoY). Disbursements grew 11% to ₹67.8B, while AUM crossed ₹200B. Asset quality improved sharply with GNPA at 1.05% (down 14bps QoQ) and 1+ DPD at 3.17% (down 63bps QoQ). NIM expanded 44bps sequentially to 8.45%, supported by spread improvement and risk-adjusted pricing. The company added 31 branches, focusing on high-potential states like Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, and UP. Management guided for 20%+ AUM growth and reiterated credit cost below 25bps. Key risk: competitive pressure and yield compression from repo rate cuts could pressure NIMs if risk-adjusted pricing initiatives lag.
