MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY -- COMMAND & CONFIDENCE
Mr. Ramesh Kumar Vijay, Managing Director, DAR Credit & Capital Limited, stated:
"Our Q3 performance is not just strong--it is decisive. In a credit environment where caution is often mistaken for weakness, we have demonstrated that prudence and profitability go hand in hand.
We grew our top line at 22%, but more importantly, we grew net profit at 31% -- proof that our operating leverage is kicking in exactly as planned. Our loan book expanded responsibly, our collection efficiency remained best-in-class, and our cost-to-income ratio continued its downward trajectory.
The foundation we have built over the past 18 months--digital underwriting, portfolio diversification, and liability franchise expansion--is now firing on all cylinders. We are entering the final quarter of FY26 with significant strategic headroom, ample liquidity, and a sharply focused growth agenda. We will not merely meet our targets; we will surpass them."
STRATEGIC HIGHLIGHTS -- EXECUTION WITH EDGE
- Profitability leadership: PAT grew 31% YoY in Q3 -- well ahead of revenue growth, confirming superior cost control and risk selection.
- Digital acceleration: 100% of new originations now processed digitally; turnaround time reduced by over 30%; cost-to-serve down 18% YoY.
OUTLOOK -- OFFENSE IN Q4, DOMINANCE IN FY27
The Company enters the final quarter of FY26 with unquestionable momentum.
- Demand tailwinds: Credit off-take remains robust across target segments; disbursements in Jan-Feb 2026 up 18% YoY.
- Margin resilience: Cost of funds stable; ability to reprice assets gives clear line of sight to NIM protection.
- Growth runway: Well-capitalised with CRAR at 43.75%, providing ample firepower for 18-20% AUM growth in FY27.
DAR Credit is not just performing. It is positioning. The stage is set for a strong finish to FY26 and a powerful leap into the next financial year.
