Commentary on Q2FY27
I am extremely happy to present to all of you, the details about another quarter of strong performance of Five-Star
Business Finance Limited (“Five Star” or “Company”). The quarter ended September 30, 2026, saw Five Star delivering
very strong numbers across various parameters.
Our upward trajectory in disbursements continued during the current quarter as well, where we recorded our
historically best disbursements at INR 2,078 Cr, up 39% over the previous quarter and 74% year-on-year. The loan book
also saw robust growth with our AUM at INR 14,640 Cr, a growth of 7% over the previous quarter and 14% year-on-year.
Importantly, this growth has come alongside improving collections, stable asset quality and profitability.
Lakshmipathy D
Managing Director
Collections continue to trend very well with our unique customer collection efficiency (excluding NPAs) improving from
97.9% in Q1FY27 to 98.2% in the current quarter, along with improvement in X-bucket collections to 99.4% from 99.2% in Q1FY27, which has
helped contain forward flows. As a result, the current bucket proportion of our AUM rose sharply from 83.30% to 84.78%, and 30+ DPD came
down from 12.38% to 11.50%. With our clear focus on containing flows from the early buckets, I am very confident that we will continue to see our
portfolio quality improving in the coming quarters.
Slippages eased marginally to 0.68% from 0.70% in Q1FY27 and Gross Stage 3 assets were broadly stable at 3.48%, despite macroeconomic
headwinds being witnessed across the industry. Credit cost improved to 1.80% of average AUM from 1.85% in Q1FY27. We expect flattish credit
slippages and credit cost for the rest of the year, despite the industry headwinds.
We availed incremental debt of ₹825 Cr during the quarter at an all-inclusive cost of 8.43%, and our cost of funds on the book eased marginally to
8.78% from 8.80% in Q1FY27. Net Interest Margin remained broadly stable at 19.87% as against 19.97% in Q1FY27 and was 16 bps higher year-
on-year, showing that our spreads have held up despite the drop in yields. With the tightening rate cycle, we expect to see some inch-up in our cost
of funds, both on incremental debt and on the book, which would have some impact on the spread and NIM however we remain confident of
navigating this interest rate cycle with minimal impact.
After a year beset with challenges across multiple fronts, we have bounced back stronger than before. Some of these numbers across
disbursements and collections are our historical best and clearly validate the actions we have taken over the last few quarters and gives us
immense confidence as we move forward.
