Bajaj Finance shares in focus after 26% AUM growth in Q4; new loans rise 36%
Shares of top NBFC Bajaj Finance rose more than 2% on April 4 after the firm announced a 26% year-on-year increase in Assets Under Management during the January-March quarter of fiscal year 2024-25. In an exchange statement, Bajaj Finance stated that their AUM was about Rs 4.17 lakh crore as of March 31, 2025, a 26% increase from the Rs 3.31 lakh crore disclosed a year earlier. In Q4FY25, the business disbursed 1.07 crore loans, up approximately 36 percent from the previous year. The financial services company’s Q4FY25 customer franchise expanded by over 22% yearly to 10.18 crore, while deposits surged by 19% to Rs 71,400 crore.
The rise has helped the stock snap a four-day losing trend that began after it reached a 52-week high of Rs 9,260 on March 25, climbing over 26% so far in 2025. According to CNBC Awaaz, Bajaj Finance received a ‘note of disapproval’ from the RBI about co-branded credit card operations failures. The letter stated that the NBFC’s present procedures put consumers at risk by failing to maintain internal controls and processes for clients.
“For the NBFC industry, Q4FY25 is hugely different from the traditional fourth quarter of the fiscal year since it lacks strong seasonality. Despite seasonality, the collection and demand trends were relatively subdued.
