The faster growth in the secured products compared to unsecured led to share of secured loans coming at 47%.

As guided, our microfinance portfolio is stabilising with improving repayment behaviour reflected in Bucket X collection efficiency of 99.45% to 99.50% consistently for 3 months of Q2FY26. Our overall asset quality as reflected in credit costs has remained flat at 2.8%, and we remain on track for sequential improvements in the remaining quarters of the financial year.

Sanjeev Nautiyal, MD & CEO, Ujjivan Small Finance Bank said: “In Q1FY26, we delivered robust 11% YoY growth in our gross loan book this was backed with strong momentum across secured segment which grew 63% YoY. The disbursements for the quarter at Rs 6,539 crore, up 24% YoY. Our total deposits grew 19% YoY to Rs 38,619 crores. CASA deposits were up 13% at Rs 9,381 crore. Retail TD plus CASA deposits stood at Rs 27,884 crores, registering a 16% growth YoY and contributing 72% to total deposits. Our cost of funds remained at 7.6% in Q1 and are expected to reduce in upcoming quarters since we have reduced the peak FD rates by 65 basis points and SA rates have been selectively re-calibrated up to 100 basis points.

The MFIN Guardrails 2.0, have been fully adopted by the Bank effective 1st April 2025. While we had anticipated a slower disbursement, we see that demand scenario continues to improve and Q1 disbursement in Group Loan was 2% higher than Q4. We stay aligned to this new operating framework and are focusing on deeper existing customer engagement and opportunities to acquire new customers. In Micro Banking nearly 1.1 lakh new customers were added in Q1 and nearly 34,000 customers were graduated from group loan to individual lending and also migrated substantial customers to secured products of Gold, Vehicle and Micro Mortgages, a testament to our efforts in nurturing credit-worthy borrowers and driving sustainable growth.

The recent regulatory change of reducing PSL requirement for SFB’s from 75% to 60% enhances flexibility to calibrate portfolio mix. The Reserve Bank of India took various steps starting February’25 including reduction of policy repo rate and continuous liquidity infusion. We believe these measures would bring down the cost of funds and increase demand in rate sensitive segments.

PAT for Q1 at Rs 103 crore is up 24% QoQ. RoA increased 12 bps to 0.8% and RoE increased 114 bps at 6.7%. Other income saw robust growth of 26% YoY lead by treasury income. Credit Cost was lower QoQ at Rs 225 crore including accelerated provision of Rs 23 crore. For FY26 we expect to grow advances around 20% with a credit cost in the range of 2.3% to 2.4% of average gross advances. RoE to be around 10% to 12% and RoA to be around 1.2% to 1.4%.

Sanjeev Nautiyal, MD & CEO, Ujjivan Small Finance Bank said: “Ujjivan has always stood strong and successfully navigated headwinds in the industry. Similarly, our resilient business model and sound reading of the on-ground situation has always kept us better prepared to identify and manage such issues confidently. As we had mentioned in our previous interactions, we had emanated pockets of stress across the country due to elevated indebtedness levels. Hence, we have proactively developed a cautious approach in terms of growth in microfinance space and have beefed up our vigilance to manage asset quality.

Ujjivan has constantly strategized to de-risk its portfolio by introducing more secured products in its offerings. In last 18 months Bank has launched products like Micro Mortgages, Gold Loan, Vehicle Loan, Agri and Working Capital (SME) loans and they are increasingly contributing to the overall asset book each month. This also reflects in our faster growth in secured asset portfolio, growing 12% sequentially. Currently our secured book contribution stands at 34.9% in Sep’24 vs 31.3% in Jun’24. Total asset book grew 14% YoY/1% QoQ to Rs 30,344 crore in Sep’24. CD ratio is at 89%, with healthy total deposit growth at 17% YoY/5% QoQ to Rs 34,070 crore. Introduction of solution-based products and increasingly enhancing product suite and delivery of quality service has continued to bring customer delight. Our CASA deposits continue to improve at Rs 8,832 crore up 6% QoQ now contributing ~26% to the total deposits. Our service channels like Hello Ujjivan, our home-grown app is enabled with self-onboarding processes of repeat, pre-approved, and top-up loans for Individual Loans segment. Additionally, we continue to evolve and improve our business net banking by offering tax payment facility. We have also secured AD-1 licence that will enable us to offer range of forex services, increasing offerings to our MSME and retail customers. This will also benefit our Other Income in the upcoming quarters. Collections are slightly impacted, primarily on the Group loan segment at 97% in Sep’24 vs 98% in Jun’24. This also reflects in the stress appearing on overall GNPA at 2.5% in Sep’24 vs 2.3% in Jun’24. Our cautious approach by introducing stricter norms compared to MFIN guidelines will ensure quality acquisition.

NIM for the quarter at 9.2% was supported by cost of funds stable at 7.5%. PPoP for the quarter was at Rs 461 crore and PAT for the quarter was Rs 233 crore. This was impacted due to much slower growth vs previous quarters on account of impact on our Micro Finance Business book and due to rising credit cost. We are confident of our business as we progress to build a ‘bank of the future’ diversifying our portfolio, increasing secured asset portfolio, leveraging on our strengths and presenting ourselves as widely accepted Bank for the masses.

This was significantly supported by strong growth in secured asset book improving by 5% QoQ, especially led by affordable housing. As on Jun’24 the secured book proportion stands at 31.3% vs 30.2% as on Mar’24. I am happy to see that we are on track to meet our stated objective and will ensure to improve the secured book contribution to 40% of the total gross advances by end of next financial year. New business segments like Micro-mortgages, Gold Loans and Vehicle Finance will play a meaningful role offering an enhanced product suite to our customers and will see significant spurt in business volumes, offsetting the impact on yields due to rising secured book proportion. Our focus on building granularity in the deposit book reflects through the strong growth in retail deposits forming 73% of the total deposits up 37% YoY. Total deposits were Rs 32,514 crore up 22% YoY, with CASA ratio at 25.6% as at Jun’24. This healthy growth reflects our C/D ratios pegged at optimal levels of 85% (including IBPC/securitisation). We are confident that business volumes will improve post H1FY25 and our asset book growth guidance will be comfortably achieved. In addition, improving business productivity, enhancing value-add product offering, continually improving service level benchmarks, leveraging technology to enhance business processes will continue to be the mainstay to serve our customers better.

Our Bank has always strived for transparency and our prudent business approach has delivered strong business performance sequentially. During the last 2 quarters, signs of stress were visible in some isolated pockets of few states where we operate. Basis which we had developed a cautious approach especially towards acquiring new to credit customer and suitably moderated our disbursements. We are aware how the PAR book has increased to 4.2% in Q1FY25 from 3.5% in Q4FY24 but are equally confident that our collections stable at 98% underpinned by strong collection team will manage asset quality at healthy levels and our guidance on credit cost will stay intact. NIMs for Q1FY25 was at 9.3% aided by stable cost of funds at 7.5%. PPoP was at Rs 510 crore. Net Profit for the quarter was Rs 301 crore, this was lower vs last quarter as normalisation in credit cost continues.

Among secured assets, Affordable Housing and FIG continue to show strong growth, while other products will start picking up towards the latter half of the year. During the quarter, we consciously reduced the excess liquidity which was driving negative carry and pulling our NIMs down. Deposits were up 45% YoY/ 4% QoQ driven by retail focus. Our credit cost for the quarter was minimal on the back of strong collections. While slippages continue to be under control, NPA recoveries have started to move toward normalization. Bad debt recoveries continue to be strong; we expect the same to be substantial this fiscal as well albeit lower than FY23. We remain confident of our sub-100 bps credit cost for FY24. We expanded our physical presence by 32 new branches during the quarter and look forward to adding ~70 more branches during Jul 23-Mar’24. Our VVV based mobile banking app – “Hello Ujjivan” targeting non-tech savvy customers continues to do well with 2.7 lakh customer downloads. Customers are increasingly using the app to transact. We are hopeful that “Hello Ujjivan” will bring several long-term benefits to the business and society as well.

We have been delivering sustained profitability with significant improvement in QoQ for the last six consecutive quarters. With our strong financial performance and growing business momentum, we have launched a national brand campaign to further establish our image as a mass-market bank. The business is delivering on all fronts and gives us immense confidence to re-assure our FY24 guidance shared at the beginning of the year.

On the merger with our promoter, the hearing of our application with the NCLT was completed on June 28, 2023, and we positively expect to receive the order soon, entailing directions for scheduling the meetings of the stakeholders and other directions as the NCLT may deem fit.”

We had a negligible credit cost for the year on the back of sustained collections – reduced slippages and strong recoveries. While slippages have normalised towards the year-end, recoveries may continue for a while. Our continued strong collections will ensure a sub-100 bps credit cost in FY24 as well. We picked up our branch expansion during the quarter with 31 new branches and will continue it in the new fiscal with around 100 branches. Among various other achievements on the digital side, the most remarkable one is the launch of our vvv based mobile banking app – “Hello Ujjivan” targeting non-tech savvy customers. The app has already received several industry accolades including Aegis Graham Bell Awards 2022 for Innovation in Consumer Tech and has seen 1.3 lakh downloads. We would continue to leverage our digital capabilities in addition to brick-and-mortar.

On the merger with our promoter, we filed our application with Honourable NCLT, Bengaluru, and are awaiting observations/ communication. We will keep the stakeholders informed on the same.

In FY24, we would be building on the base of FY23. The contribution of secured products in growth would see improvement as our strategy/ execution for respective verticals take clearer shape. Overall, we remain confident of the business growth (>25% gross loan book growth) and profitability (~22% RoE). We remain committed to our journey towards becoming a leading mass-market bank and contributing towards digital inclusion in India.”
