Revenue guidance

Category 4
  • Q1 FY25 showed moderate growth with disbursement growth at 5%, below the 14-15% full-year guidance, reflecting subdued vehicle sales due to macro challenges.
  • Management expects growth to improve in the next three quarters, especially Q3 due to seasonal/festive demand.
  • Diversification into non-vehicle segments like SME and pre-owned vehicles is progressing, expected to support growth.
  • Growth in passenger vehicles was moderate at 3% Y-o-Y; CV & construction equipment disbursements rose 11% Y-o-Y.
  • Overall book growth anticipated to be in high teens to around 20%, though disbursement growth faces short-term moderation.
  • Growth in high-value vehicle loans is key focus; limits have been reached in some prime segments.
  • Strategy is cautious, avoiding chase of growth where demand is weak, focusing on profitable and sustainable expansion.
