Material risks this quarter

Elevated balance transfers reducing book growth

BT outs doubled to INR 4,000 crore in Q2 (vs INR 2,000 crore run rate), causing approximately INR 2,000 crore of book erosion. While October data shows normalization, any further rate differential with PSU banks (offering 7.35-7.50%) could trigger renewed outflows at the 8% rewriting rate floor.

Project loan pipeline underpenetrated

H1 construction finance disbursements of INR 156 crore represent a INR 900+ crore shortfall vs H1 FY25. While yield improved to 12%+, the pipeline of INR 4,000+ crore undisbursed sanctions must convert in Q3-Q4 to meet the INR 5,000 crore annual target—execution risk is elevated.

Competitive intensity from PSU banks compressing margins

PSU banks are offering home loans at 7.35% and construction finance at near-retail rates, creating persistent pricing pressure. Management has drawn a line at protecting margins over volume, but this structural constraint could limit market share recovery if sustained. The CEO explicitly deferred addressing this in analyst Q&A.

Agency dependency without exclusivity

87% of business flows through third-party agents who are freelancers distributing across multiple lenders. Management acknowledged this structural vulnerability but deferred structural changes to the ongoing 3-6 month consultant review, creating near-term growth ceiling.
