L&T Finance Holdings has reported a 13.7 per cent rise in
consolidated net profit in the September quarter to Rs 300.7 crore,
driven by a healthy growth in assets.
Loans and advances grew 28.2 per cent year-on-year to Rs 35,458.7 crore compared to Rs 33,309.9 crore.
The growth in net profit in lending businesses has been on account of improvement in margins, offset by an increase in credit cost. For the lending businesses, net interest margin for the quarter improved by 0.1 percentage point to 5.6 per cent, the company said in a statement.
Gross NPAs stood at 2.89 per cent or at Rs 992.9 crore of loan assets compared to 2.54 per cent in the June quarter or Rs 846.4 crore. Net NPAs stood at 1.93 per cent or Rs 654.6 crore of loan assets compared to 1.67 per cent or Rs 551 crore in the June quarter.
The company attributed the rise in gross NPAs to slippage of one account in the infrastructure segment.
Despite a de-growth in the investment management business industry, the average assets under management grew by 9.4 per cent to Rs 15,078.9 crore, resulting in an increase in market share from 1.6 per cent in Q1 to 1.9 per cent in Q2.
The private wealth management business continued to grow momentum with the client base crossing 1,000 and an average assets under service of Rs 3,570 crore.
