Quarter read
What the record says.
MAS Financial delivered a strong Q4 FY26 with consolidated PAT of ₹104 crore (+25% YoY) and AUM crossing ₹15,000 crore (+19% YoY). Growth was driven by MSME (70% of book) and two-wheeler loans (+35% YoY), while asset quality remained stable with net NPA at 1.70% (standalone) and 0.68% (housing). Management guided for 20-25% AUM growth in FY27, with housing finance targeting 30-35% growth. Cost of borrowing declined 42bps YoY to 9.39%, with further improvement expected. Credit cost is guided at 1-1.25% of AUM. A key risk is potential inflationary pressure from crude prices impacting borrower repayment capacity, especially in CV and logistics segments.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management expects to grow AUM at 20-25% in FY27, consistent with historical performance, prioritizing risk management and profitability.
- Housing finance company aims to grow AUM at 30-35% given its lower base, targeting ₹1,000 crore AUM soon.
- Management expects cost of borrowing to reduce further to around 9.20-9.25% over the next 2-3 quarters.
- Credit cost is expected to remain in the range of 1-1.25% of closing AUM, with potential for aggressive write-offs if profitability allows.
Risks flagged
- Rising crude prices could impact borrower repayment capacity, especially in logistics and transport segments, potentially reversing asset quality improvement.
- Management is deliberately growing the CV book slower due to perceived risks in the logistics sector, which may limit overall growth if other segments underperform.
- Management added petrol pumps, gas agencies, and chemical industries to caution list due to Middle East supply disruptions, which could affect asset quality.
Key quotes
- The most potent early warning system is your ears very close to the ground because when the early warning signal starts appearing on the data, things have already started going bad.
- We believe in building up squares rather than just doing a linear expansion. We want our branches to sweat and to contribute to the profitability.
- We have not tinkered a lot in terms of rules framing. We have kept the rules more or less the way we used to do them earlier. We still want to run this scorecard for another one or two quarters.
