Capri Global Capital recorded a 62.3% year-on-year increase in assets under management in Q2 FY27, led by strong performance in gold and housing finance. While a recent brokerage note revised profit estimates upward, investors may track regulatory trends and asset quality in a competitive lending environment.
Capri Global Capital reported a strong financial performance in the second quarter of the 2027 fiscal year, marked by significant expansion across its lending portfolios. The company’s total assets under management grew by 62.3% compared to the same period last year. This growth was driven by consistent demand across its gold loan, housing, and construction finance divisions.
The gold loan portfolio emerged as a primary contributor, expanding by 101.8% year-on-year to reach INR 210 billion. Additionally, the company's housing and construction finance segments recorded solid growth, rising by 39.4% and 51% respectively during the quarter.
Following these results, analysts at Choice Institutional Equities have adjusted their outlook for the company. They have revised their profit after tax estimates upward by 1.8% for fiscal year 2027 and 2.1% for fiscal year 2028. The brokerage projected that the company's consolidated assets under management could reach INR 660.2 billion by the end of fiscal year 2028, citing better-than-expected net interest income as a supporting factor for this revised outlook.
While the expansion highlights growth, investors in the non-banking financial company (NBFC) sector typically monitor several business factors. The gold loan market in India is highly competitive, with established players and banking institutions vying for market share, which can put pressure on lending yields. Furthermore, NBFCs operate under the regulatory framework of the Reserve Bank of India, and any updates regarding capital adequacy, gold loan provisioning, or interest rate policies can impact operational flexibility.
As the company scales its operations, maintaining asset quality remains a critical area for shareholders. Rapid loan book growth, if not matched by strict underwriting standards, can sometimes lead to an increase in non-performing assets. Looking ahead, investors may watch for management commentary on interest rate trends, their ability to pass on borrowing costs to customers, and sustained growth in net interest margins.
