The year saw tightening on the liquidity front and also muted activity on the capital market space for such players. However, we have continued to register incremental growth on the AUM front thanks to our strong liability machinery and resultant disbursements. We have also been able to successfully execute our first every direct assignment, which is a testament to our underwriting capabilities. We have stayed put and focused on maintaining asset quality, invested in strengthening network by addition of quality manpower and continued to search fertile micro markets through the year. We look ahead to FY’2025-26 with optimism and build the bearings across the balance sheet that would enable scale up as envisaged”
