DhanSafal Posts Strong Third Quarter Performance And AUM Growth

DhanSafal Finserve Limited reported its financial and operational results for the quarter and nine months ended 31 December 2025, indicating pronounced growth in its lending franchise and revenues. The board approved results showed Assets Under Management (AUM) and revenue expanding materially on a year on year basis. Performance reflected sustained demand for secured retail MSME loans alongside disciplined underwriting and measured geographic expansion.

AUM reached Rs 804.6 million (mn) as at 31 December 2025 compared with Rs 332.0 million (mn) a year earlier, representing a growth of 141 per cent driven by demand for loans against property among MSMEs, traders and self employed borrowers. Revenue from operations rose to Rs 85.9 million (mn) from Rs 30.1 million (mn), an increase of 185 per cent supported by portfolio growth and improved yields. Net worth strengthened to Rs 619.1 million (mn), up 43 per cent, reflecting healthy internal accruals and prudent capital management.

The company expanded its presence across four key states and now operates from nine strategic locations, including Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur, Nanded, Jaipur, Udaipur, Indore, Pithampur and Agra. The customer base exceeded 700 active customers, predominantly from MSME and retail self employed segments, with loan disbursements increasing significantly during the period. Operational execution was supported by calibrated branch expansion and focused credit processes.

Management outlined priorities to sustain momentum through targeted branch additions, introduction of smaller ticket and shorter tenure products to address mass market needs, and investments in loan origination and loan management systems to improve efficiency. There is an emphasis on strengthening the capital base with greater use of debt financing and on enhancing brand visibility to attract quality leads. The company positioned itself to bridge formal banking and informal lenders, aiming to promote financial inclusion across emerging and semi urban markets.
