Revenue guidance

Category 3
  • Spandana expects AUM (Assets Under Management) growth to be slightly higher than where it ended in March, aiming to surpass last year's AUM by year-end.
  • Growth will predominantly come from the existing customer base rather than new customer acquisition in the short term.
  • The company paused customer acquisition in many branches to focus on stable collections and recoveries.
  • Pent-up demand exists due to constrained supply in recent quarters; disbursements are now being stepped up gradually.
  • Weekly model branches demonstrate better collection efficiency (~97% gross, 94.2% net) indicating operational improvement.
  • Industry-wide, growth in customers continues with penetration at about 40-45%, leaving significant headroom.
  • Long term growth (FY 26-27) expected as market corrections stabilize and discipline returns, with prudent lending practices upheld.
  • Overall, growth is seen as a transitory recovery supported by improved management of portfolio and credit discipline.
