Let me first start by giving a brief overview of the company and operational highlights, followed by which our CFO will brief you on the financial performance for the period under review. Manba Finance Limited is an NBFC offering range of financial solutions, including loans to new 2-wheeler, 3-wheeler, used car, MSME LAP, top-up loan, personal loan, used 2-wheeler loans and battery replacement loans. We are currently operating in 148 locations across 7 states, precisely Maharashtra, Gujarat, Rajasthan, MP, Chhattisgarh, UP and Karnataka. Our distribution network includes over 1,900- plus dealers. We have a total team size of approximately 2,061 employees, out of which more than 1,100-plus employees are a part of sales team. Our internal collection team ensures low NPAs in the industry. The company commands one of the fastest turnaround time for loan sanctioned in the industry with over 60% of our loans sanctioned in one minute and 92% loans sanctioned within a day. I'm happy to share that recently, company's credit rating has been upgraded to A minus stable from BBB plus positive by CARE ratings. Reflecting the sustainable scale in the company's operations with assets under management registering a compounded annual growth rate CAGR of 36.33%, alongside access to incremental funding at a lower cost and expectation of INR99.99 crores -- around INR100 crores infusion through preferential issue equity and warrants. Ratings continue to be supported by MFL's experienced management team with established experience in 2-wheeler financing, adequate capitalization levels and adequate profitability Page 2 of 12 Manba Finance Limited October 28, 2026 parameters. This enhanced credit standing has also supported improving funding efficiency with the average cost of borrowing declined to 10.14%. Moving on the industry landscape, vehicle registration trends point to healthy demand across the auto sector, creating a supportive environment for auto finance. During the second quarter, 2- wheeler registration reached approximately 53 lakh units with August and September both recording their highest ever volumes. 3-wheeler registration crossed 3.9 lakh units, supported by strong demand for electric motors. Importantly, demand continues to be driven by rural as well as Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets, which are key focus area for Manba Finance. The momentum was further reflected in September when FADA reported record vehicle retail registration of 25.37 lakh units, up by 32% year-on-year. 2-wheeler registration grew 33% to 17.9 lakh units, while 3-wheeler registration increased to 22% to 1.32 lakh units. Looking ahead, the demand outlook remains encouraging with 78% of dealers in the industry expecting growth during the October to December. The conversion of deferred demand around the Dhanteras and Diwali festive period is expected to provide further support. We believe this favorable industry trends will create a supportive environment for auto financing and help sustain healthy disbursement momentum in the coming quarters. Further, the company declared second interim dividend of INR0.25 per equity share on a face value of INR10 each for the financial year '26-'27, reflecting our continued commitment towards shareholder value creation. I would like to highlight the change in the Chairperson of the company from Mr. Nalliepily Ramaswami Parameshwaran to Mrs. Neelam Tater, Independent Directors.
