2-Minute Summary
Suryoday Small Finance Bank reported a strong Q4 FY26 with PAT of ₹152 crore (up 32% YoY) and revenue of ₹1,458 crore (up 10.2% YoY). The turnaround was driven by a sharp reduction in slippages to ₹106 crore (from ₹155 crore in Q3), improving collection efficiency to 99.7% in inclusive finance, and a strategic shift from JLG to individual lending (now 75% of inclusive finance portfolio). Management guided for 1.2% ROA in Q1 FY27, rising to 1.6% by Q4, supported by CGFMU claims of ₹450-550 crore and lower credit costs (~1%). Key risks include potential impact from crude price hikes on the CV portfolio and elevated cost of deposits.
