Today’s top research idea
Bajaj Finance: Growth outlook remains healthy; Pressure on
LAP continues
Bajaj Finance (BAF) had a strong quarter with 35% YoY AUM growth, modest
margin uptick (due to higher capital), and stable asset quality.
From a customer base of 25m currently, management targets to reach 75m
over the next five years. BAF already has a database of 30m people who are
mass affluent but not yet customers of the company – management would like
to tap around half of them. Tie up with RBL is showing strong traction and it has
already issued 0.25m cards and target to end with 1m cards by end of CY18.
Management has infused INR12b in the HFC subsidiary, taking its net-worth to
INR15.5b. Over the next 5 years, this could be an INR600-700b balance sheet,
as per management.
