‘Improved performance’
VP Nandakumar, MD & CEO, said, “In the face of intense competition, it is creditable that we have not only improved upon our performance in the preceding quarter but also managed our cost position in a competent manner. Year-on-year, our gold loan AUM has picked up significantly despite the fact that our LTV is well below the peer group. Asirvad, our microfinance business, is poised for significant growth in the days to come.”
Asirvad Microfinance Ltd closed the quarter with an AUM of ₹7,012.53 crore, up from 6,052.60 crore recorded in the year-ago quarter. The home loan subsidiary, Manappuram Home Finance Ltd., has posted an AUM of Rs874.75 crore, which is up by 22.63 per cent year-on-year and 3.49 per cent more than the previous quarter. The Vehicles & Equipment Finance division ended the quarter with an AUM of ₹1,755.05 crore.
The company’s non-gold loan businesses now account for 34 per cent share of its consolidated AUM. Gross NPA stood at 1.43 per cent and net NPA was reported at 1.25 per cent.
