Management targets an AUM CAGR of 16% to 18% for the FY26–FY31 period, with the core mobility business compounding at 12% and new non-wheels businesses growing at 30% and above. On profitability, the company aims for a medium-term NIM above 7% to 7.1% and expects return on assets to climb from 2% to 2.2%, eventually reaching 2.5%. Management also indicated that OpEx growth is expected to remain lower than loan growth, with OpEx to average assets for traditional businesses targeted at 2.5% to 2.7%, so as to avoid compromising credit costs.

Analyst and Broker Reactions

Following the Q1 FY27 results, leading brokerages have issued divergent views on the stock. The profit beat, driven by lower provisions and resilient asset quality, has been broadly acknowledged, though opinions on the growth and margin outlook vary.

Jefferies maintained its Hold rating with a target price of ₹365, noting that while the Q1 profit beat was supported by lower provisions and resilient asset quality, risks from a weak monsoon season could weigh on growth and net interest margin trajectory. HSBC upgraded its rating to Buy and raised its target price to ₹410, citing stronger execution, improved asset quality, faster disbursement growth, and higher fee income as drivers of sharp earnings-per-share upgrades. Nomura retained its Buy rating with a target price of ₹415, highlighting that the Q1 profit surpassed estimates, asset quality remained healthy despite a seasonally weak quarter, and underwriting trends continue to show improvement.
