Commenting on the performance Mr.Manoj Viswanathan, MD & CEO said,

“We stay focused on providing loans for affordable housing, led by distribution and use of technology, backed by diversified funding and strong risk management. We continue to expand our distribution in large affordable housing markets in States where we are already present, going deeper in a contiguous manner. We now do business across 282 touchpoints across Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets in 13 states/ UT. Disbursement in Q1 at Rs 895 Cr was higher than Q4, with a growth of 35.4% on y-o-y basis and 3.0% on q-o-q basis, leading to an AUM growth of 33.3% to Rs 7,776 Cr. We witnessed pass through of rate hikes and elevated interest rate environment. Our strong liability profile and timely availability of low cost funding from NHB enabled us to contain the cost of borrowing. Competitive overall cost of borrowing coupled with PLR increase of 50bps in Apr’23 helped expand spreads on q-o-q basis and sustain NIM on q-o-q basis, despite increase in leverage. Spreads at 5.7% remain ahead of our guided levels of 5.25%.
