SBI Cards reported Q4 FY26 revenue of ₹5,187 crore (+7% YoY) and PAT of ₹609 crore (+14% YoY), driven by strong spend growth (total spends ₹1.15 trillion, +31% YoY) and improving asset quality. Gross credit cost improved 55bps QoQ to 7.7%, and NPA stock reduced by ₹268 crore QoQ. Management guided for calibrated card acquisition of 9 lakh to 1 million per quarter and expects credit cost to moderate further in FY27. However, receivables growth slowed to just 2% YoY, and the cost-to-income ratio remained elevated at 57.2% due to higher corporate spends. Revolver rates are expected to trend slightly downward, pressuring NIM. Key risk: geopolitical uncertainty could derail credit cost improvement and asset quality.
