Ujjivan Small Finance Bank enters its Q2 FY 2026-2027 print with a provisional business update already showing strong momentum — deposits of Rs. 50,649 Cr and a gross loan book of Rs. 45,699 Cr, both growing around 30% YoY. The key things the results will speak to are whether asset quality (GNPA at a provisional 2.10%) and margins hold within the bank's revised FY27 guidance, all against the backdrop of an ongoing CEO transition.

The Board was scheduled to meet October 16, 2026 to approve unaudited Q2/H1 FY27 results for the period ended September 30, 2026. The trading window closed October 1 and was due to reopen 48 hours after results.
The quarter's central test is whether Ujjivan can convert its strong provisional growth read into profitability within its revised FY27 guidance of RoA of 1.8%-2.0% and credit cost of 0.9%-1.0% of average total assets. The October 3 provisional update showed gross loan book growth of 32.1% YoY and disbursements of Rs. 10,560 Cr (up 33.1% YoY), both ahead of the approximately 25% advances growth guidance, with gold loans up 209.7% YoY, agri banking up 79.1%, vehicle loans up 64.7% and MSME up 51.3% driving the secured pivot. Asset quality improved on the provisional read, with GNPA at 2.10% (down 35 bps YoY) and PAR at 3.57% (down 88 bps YoY), while micro-banking Bucket X collection efficiency of 99.72% was essentially unchanged from the about 99.7% cited in Q1 — the trend management said underpins its credit-cost outlook. Margin pressure remains the monitored item: the repo rate was held at 5.25% through the quarter, but CASA competition intensified and the bank's own CASA ratio slipped to 26.8% in Q1 against a target of closer to 30% by FY27 year-end, with Q1 cost of funds at 6.9%. The results will also be the first print since the CEO transition, with Carol Furtado serving as Interim CEO from September 1, 2026 and management stating FY27 plans remained on track.

Management cited micro-banking Bucket X collection efficiency of about 99.7% in Q1FY27 (99.72% in the provisional Q2 update) and said the credit-cost outlook depends on that trend continuing. MFI slippages were below 2%, provision coverage was about 95%, and MFI credit cost was about 1.9% of the gross MFI portfolio, expected to be slightly below the previously guided 2%.
Management raised the FY27 RoA guidance to 1.8%-2.0% from about 1.6% at Q1FY27, citing operating performance, improving asset quality and an enhanced cost outlook. It also acknowledged funding-rate conditions, CASA competition and asset-product pricing pressure, which it said were factored into the revised guidance.
The Q1FY27 concall summary reported a micro-mortgage portfolio of Rs. 1,800 Cr with PAR of about 1.5% versus 1.2% and GNPA of 0.55% versus 0.47%. Management also cited monthly collection efficiency of 99.7%-99.75% for the segment.
Sanjeev Nautiyal ceased as MD & CEO effective September 1, 2026, citing health reasons, and RBI approved Executive Director Carol Furtado as Interim CEO for three months or until a regular appointment, whichever is earlier. Management said on the September 3 transition call that it expected to submit permanent-successor names to RBI in 3-4 months and that FY27 guidance remained on track.
Yes — the provisional Q2FY27 update showed gross loan book growth of 32.1% YoY to Rs. 45,699 Cr, ahead of the approximately 25% FY27 advances growth guidance. Growth was led by gold loans (up 209.7% YoY), agri banking (79.1%), vehicle loans (64.7%) and MSME (51.3%), consistent with the bank's secured-pivot strategy.
