The growth was predominantly led by Retail (33.5% YoY, 5.9% QoQ) and Gold loans (13.2%YoY, 3.8% QoQ) segments.

    Outlook

    However, the increased exposure to below BBB rating borrowers poses a cause of concern. The Stock currently trades at 0.6x P/ABV of FY20E. We maintain a BUY rating on the stock and revise the target price to INR 22, assigning a 0.9X P/ABV FY20E.
