India's Credit Landscape has changed and is facing structural and regulatory challenges.
The Indian regulator (RBI), particularly in its oversight of underwriting practices and the behavior of Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs), is commendably proactive, positioning it ahead of the curve.
We expect more such steps in other parts of the credit funnel. The recent crack down along with the stock underperformance is here to stay and possibility intensify.

Q3FY24 performance was slightly below expectation led by NIM margin compression and marginally elevated credit costs. Certain regulatory restrictions also dampened growth and profitability.
However, from a medium-term perspective, BAF is setting up well to be a sustained growth powerhouse. It has widened its product catalogue and is deepening the product availability per branch.
Led by growth tailwinds and market share gains, BAF has potential to grow at 25%+ for a prolonged period. The current headwinds seem temporary and provide a buying opportunity.
