Also, lifting up of lockdown restrictions in major parts of the country coupled with festivals round the corner makes demand scenario look promising across sectors. Micro-Finance being a part of this ecosystem is also expected to benefit from this positive momentum.

As major impact of pandemic and lockdowns was felt in quarter one of FY21, we believe that quarter two looked quite positive on various KPIs. We saw significant improvement both in terms of our disbursements as well as our collection activities. Our disbursements for the quarter stood at Rs. 632 crores as against Rs. 54 crores in Q1FY21 which is a big positive. Also, our collection efficiency improved from 62% in June’20 to 94% at the end of Sept’20. We expect this momentum to continue in the coming quarters.

We have also showcased some improving trajectory in our portfolio quality and have managed to keep our GNPA in check despite challenging economic scenario. We endeavor on achieving steady growth without dampening our portfolio quality. 

Going forward we expect to regain our growth trajectory and believe that coming quarters to be much better and robust both on financial and operational aspects.”
