Muthoot Microfin Limited<\/a> reported a sharp rise in profitability in its Q4 results 2026, driven by lower borrowing costs, improving asset quality, and a strategic shift toward secured business lending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, total income for FY26 declined 7.2% YoY to \u20b923,807 million, reflecting a softer lending environment across the microfinance sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Muthoot Microfin\u2019s net interest margin improved to 12% in Q4 FY26, expanding 104 basis points from a year ago. The company also strengthened operating efficiency, with its cost-to-income ratio falling sharply to 53.2% from higher levels last year. The opex ratio eased to 6.4%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Q4 results 2026 update, the lender highlighted strong growth in assets under management (AUM), which rose 13.3% YoY to \u20b9140,056 million. Quarterly disbursements climbed 46.8% to \u20b928,767 million, indicating improving credit demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company is gradually reducing dependence on traditional joint liability group (JLG) microfinance loans and expanding into MSME and secured lending products. Secured business loan balances jumped 256%, while average ticket size increased 28% to \u20b974,079.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Asset quality also improved during the quarter. Gross NPA declined to 3.89% from 4.84% a year earlier, while net NPA improved to 1.14%. Credit cost reduced to 2.8%, supported by stronger collections and wider adoption of digital repayment mandates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
