Sachinder Bhinder, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, said: “Dear All, Q1FY26 was a landmark quarter for Aavas, marking a pivotal moment in our journey. We successfully concluded the change in promoter process and are proud to welcome CVC Capital Partners as our new promoter. The trust and conviction shown by CVC in Aavas is a strong testament to the strength of our franchise and the vast opportunity in the affordable housing finance sector in India. Their global perspective, institutional depth, and strategic insight position Aavas to accelerate into its next phase of growth and innovation. I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to the visionary leadership of our former promoters, Kedaara Capital and Partners Group. Under their stewardship, what began as an ambitious proof of concept has grown into a scalable institution—one that has transformed lives and made affordable homeownership a reality for thousands of families. This quarter also marks a significant milestone in our commitment to governance, transparency and putting the customer at the centre of everything we do. We’ve taken a historic step by transitioning to a realisation-based model for disbursement recognition - a forward-looking and conservative approach that reflects our intent to stay one step ahead, aligning not just with regulatory expectations, but with their true spirit. Our strategic focus remains on optimising yield and credit quality. We achieved a 35 bps YoY improvement in yield this quarter, driven by targeted initiatives to optimise mix and pricing. Further, our proactive liability management has helped reduce our cost of borrowings by 22 bps QoQ, enabling us to deliver a healthy spread above 5%, at 5.11%. Aavas maintains a well-diversified liability franchise supported by prudent cash flow management. As of June 2025, we remain well-capitalised with a Capital to Risk (Weighted) Assets Ratio (CRAR) of 43.2%. Following the successful completion of our technological transformation, we have begun to realise measurable improvements. As of June 2025, the turnaround time from login to sanction has been reduced to 6 days, a significant enhancement from the earlier peak of 13 days. Our paper usage has been cut by 59% and we have rolled out digital agreements in 120 branches. Aligned with our strategy of contiguous growth, we continue to expand our footprint in both core and emerging markets. Our branch network now spans 397 branches across 14 states. Our strong underwriting standards and tech-enabled collection efforts have enabled us to preserve the pristine asset quality of the portfolio. As of June 2025, the 1+ days past due metric stands at 4.15%, while Gross Stage 3 remains contained at 1.22%, reflecting the portfolio’s overall health. Government initiatives such as the Interest Subsidy Scheme (ISS) under PMAY 2.0, combined with a supportive interest rate environment, continue to bolster homebuyer sentiment and improve affordability. I’m pleased to report that over 450 Aavas customers have benefited from these schemes, receiving subsidies totalling more than Rs 15 million. We also want to acknowledge the NHB for its continued leadership in promoting transparency, governance, inclusion, diversity, and capability-building in the sector. We’re proud to share that Aavas has won the “Product Innovation” award at NHB’s inaugural Housing Finance Excellence Awards 2025. Our firm commitment to Governance, Asset Quality, Profitability, and Growth remains paramount. By harnessing advanced technology and delivering exceptional customer experiences, we are confident in a bright future. Our strategic initiatives are poised to drive sustainable growth and maximise shareholder value.” Result PDF
