ESAFSFB vs Banks (2024 - 2026)
Question: "Now with your gross NPA reducing and even slippage has come down considerably. So by when should we see normalization of credit cost or a declining trend as such?"
Answer: "I believe credit costs will get normalized in the next financial year itself. It has already moderated on both a quarter-on-quarter and month-on-month basis. We expect to see visible improvements starting from Q1 FY27."
Question: "What would be a normalized credit cost given the current portfolio mix?"
Answer: "Given our current portfolio mix with 63% secured assets, we anticipate a normalized credit cost in the range of 2% to 3% moving forward."
Question: "What is your steady-state ROA profile that you expect given the current portfolio mix?"
Answer: "We hope to stabilize our ROA at around 1.5% to 2% on a normalized level as we absorb some backlog in the P&L. However, the full impact may take time, likely becoming evident in FY28."
Question: "What is the growth outlook for FY27 in terms of loan book growth?"
Answer: "For FY27, we expect loan growth to be around 25%. This year (FY26), we anticipate ending with a growth rate of approximately 15%."
Question: "Could you please share the write-off numbers on the microfinance book for 9 months FY26?"
Answer: "We haven't done any technical write-offs this year; instead, we had some ARC sales amounting to around INR 1,018 crores for the first nine months."
