Our leadership in this segment continues to reflect the deep trust our customers place in us and the effectiveness of our customer-centric approach. As the Indian economy advances, demand for quick, reliable, and affordable credit is rising – and gold loans remain a critical enabler in this space. We are also accelerating our digital transformation journey to ensure faster, more seamless credit access for millions of customers across the country. Strategic investments in technology and innovation are enhancing operational efficiency and customer experience. With this momentum, we are confident of sustaining strong growth in the quarters ahead." George Alexander Muthoot, Managing Director, said: "We had an impressive start to the year with our Standalone Loan Assets Under Management reaching a historic high of Rs 1,20,031 crore, driven by robust 40% YoY growth in gold loan of Rs 32,272 crore and a 10% QoQ increase of Rs 10,238 crore. This growth is a testament to our three-pronged strategy to focus on disbursements, operational efficiency, and maintaining healthy margins. As a result, our Standalone Profit after Tax for Q1FY26 grew by 90 % to reach Rs 2,046 crore. These results reaffirm our leadership in the gold loan segment, supported by a pan-India branch network, strong brand equity, and deeper customer engagement. We are encouraged by the growing acceptance of gold loans as a reliable, accessible, and inclusive form of credit. Looking ahead, we are accelerating our efforts to digitally enable our gold loan offerings, making credit access faster, more seamless, and more inclusive. Our technology investments are already enhancing customer experience, reducing turnaround times, and strengthening operational efficiency. The recent RBI guidelines on gold loans will bring greater transparency and further streamline the lending process, while the recent interest rate cuts create a more favourable credit environment. With these supportive tailwinds and our continued focus on innovation and service excellence, we are well-positioned to sustain strong growth through FY26 and beyond." Result PDF
