Now, I would like to hand over to Mr. Arvind Kapil, Managing Director, and Chief Executive Officer of the company. Arvind Kapil: Thank you, Shabnum. A very good evening, everyone, and welcome to our Q2FY27 earnings call. Thank you for joining us. As we step into the festive season, let me begin by wishing all of you and your families a very happy and prosperous times ahead. I'd like to open with the statement of where our institution stands. This quarter, in my view, marks an inflection point in establishing a self-sustaining earnings engine through the structural improvements across four key dimensions. We've delivered disciplined AUM expansion while enriching NIM and fee income optimization. Concurrently, continuous credit quality refinement coupled with collection infrastructure has driven credit cost lower, translating into a structural lift in our return-on-assets (ROAs), accelerated by a maturing AI and digital-led, these foundational gains, in my view, reinforce the compounding power and long-term sustainability of our franchise. Now moving on to our quarter specific numbers. AUM at the end of Q2FY27 stands at ₹74,008 crore. The new products we've launched have contributed 28% of the disbursements this quarter versus 26% the previous, and 24% the Page 2 of 18 Poonawalla Fincorp Limited October 09, 2026 previous to that. They continue to scale steadily and add to the predictability of our future earnings. As I said in my previous calls, our growth isn't just about chasing volumes, it's about raising the margin per unit. We therefore track six key performance vectors very closely and they continue to move in line with our plans and expectations. The first, our portfolio yield has increased by approximately 45 basis points over Q1FY27. So, it's now at 14.08%, demonstrating effective transmission of previous disbursement yield onto the portfolio yield. Our disbursement yield by itself as well has further expanded by approximately 20 basis points over Q1FY27, driven by our product mix. Just a quick reminder that this follows on top of approximately 50 basis points expansion in disbursement yields we had reported last quarter. Now moving on to the next point. Q2FY27, if I take NIM plus fees, that's expanded by 16 basis points to 9.26% from 9.10% in Q1FY27. We have now sustained net income of over 9% over three quarters reflecting our structural choices on product mix, customer segments and channels. Noteworthy, in my assessment, would be our credit cost this quarter, which has declined by 25 basis points from 2.4% to 2.19%. Our GNPA for Q2FY27 stands at 1.2% versus a 1.37% the previous quarter. While these are outcome metrics, we track the quality of our incremental cohorts very closely as lead indicators. The 6 MOB 30+ of the most recent cohort is approximately now 0.35%, approximately 32 basis points lower than the 0.67% that we had last quarter, which is by itself 41 basis points lower than the previous quarter. This keeps a firm downward bias on our credit cost. I wish to emphasize at this juncture, these 6 MOB 30+ numbers are computed excluding gold loans, demonstrating the true nature of our credit calibration and collection performance. Opex-to-AUM for the quarter stands at 4.15%. It reflects pre-investments that we have frontloaded; collection capacity, AI investments and our gold loan branch rollouts. This quarter movement sits within the 10 to 25 basis point range we had guided for. As a result, we've achieved ₹375 crore in profit after tax, recording a 22% growth quarter-on-quarter. Our ROA has moved up to 2.18%, reflecting a 20-basis point improvement over the previous quarter, and approximately 149 basis points improvements over Q2FY26. Beyond these numbers, I want to spend the next few minutes on five aspects that define this quarter, which I believe will define the quarters ahead. First, robust product traction and expansion of our distribution. Our quarterly performance reflects high-quality growth across our entire product portfolio. A key driver of this performance is the seamless market adoption of our recent product launches. Each of them continues to build scale quarter-on-quarter and distribution footprint continues to strengthen. Few highlights, probably to give you some sense of the ground level field.
