Shares of leading NBFC Bajaj Finance surged over 2 percent on April 4 after the company shared a positive business update of a 26 percent on year rise in Assets Under Management (AUM) during the January-March quarter of the financial year 2024-25.

In an exchange filing, Bajaj Finance said its AUM stood at around Rs 4.17 lakh crore as of March 31, 2025, marking a 26 percent rise, as against the Rs 3.31 lakh crore AUM reported a year ago. The company disbursed 1.07 crore loans in Q4FY25, marking a rise of nearly 36 percent compared to a year ago. The Q4FY25 customer franchise of the financial services company rose nearly 22 percent YoY to 10.18 crore, while deposits book increased 19 percent to Rs 71,400 crore.

The rally has helped the share break its four-day losing streak, which began after it hit a 52-week high of Rs 9,260 on March 25, rising nearly 26 percent so far in 2025.

Bajaj Finance has also received a 'letter of displeasure' from RBI, as reported by CNBC Awaaz, over lapses in its co-branded credit cards business. The letter said that the NBFC's current arrangements are exposing customers to risks by failing to maintain internal controls and processes for clients.

"For the NBFC sector, Q4FY25 is very unlike the typical 4Q of the fiscal year since the strong seasonality is missing in the quarter. The seasonality notwithstanding, collection and demand trend remained rather muted. Asset quality, which usually improves significantly in Q4, is not clearly there in this quarter," Motilal Oswal Financial Services has said.
