Material risks this quarter

High unsecured portfolio concentration

95% of portfolio remains unsecured despite diversification efforts. Individual MSGB loans, while showing zero delinquency currently, represent early-stage portfolio that may face stress in economic downturns. Rejection rate of 30% even for 700+ credit score customers indicates risk selectivity challenges.

Regulatory and political risk in operating states

Karnataka legislation in November last year caused significant provisioning impact. Tamil Nadu and Kerala (key states contributing 44% of new book) face political sensitivity. Management admits industry-wide 'event risk' remains a concern despite portfolio diversification strategy.

Capital raise may dilute shareholder returns

Analyst directly questioned whether company can leverage existing capital for growth without dilution until FY27-28. Management admitted capital raise will be needed but not in near term, with current leverage at 3.3x (regulatory max 6x). Timing and pricing of potential equity raise remains uncertain.

Growth strategy may compress pricing power

Management highlighted industry-wide focus on retaining existing customers (72% US+1) over acquiring new customers due to guardrails. As multiple MFI players compete for same quality borrowers, yields may face pressure despite stated guidance. Focus on US+1 limits total addressable market expansion.
