Sanjeev Nautiyal, MD & CEO, Ujjivan Small Finance Bank said, “Our focussed business approach culminated with strong connect with the field aided in healthy asset book growth of 19% YoY to Rs 30,069 crore as of Jun’24. 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. Our return ratios continue to be healthy with RoA at 2.9% and RoE at 20.9% for the quarter.”
