Muthoot Capital Services swings to profit; portfolio shifts toward lower-risk assets (NSE: MUTHOOTCAP)
On 16 July 2026, Muthoot Capital Services (NSE: MUTHOOTCAP, BSE: 511766) reported a standalone net profit of ₹8.12 crore for Q1 FY27, reversing a net loss of ₹4.67 crore in Q1 FY26, according to its unaudited results filed with BSE that day. Revenue from operations grew 7.1% to ₹155.53 crore over the same period.
Asset quality and the ARC clean-up
Gross NPA ratio fell to 3.94% from 5.76% year-on-year, while net NPA improved to 2.36% from 2.70% (BSE filing, 16 July 2026). The quarter also included the sale of a stressed loan portfolio of ₹203.01 crore to Prasaditya ARC for ₹93.20 crore, resulting in a ₹17.2 crore impairment charge (same filing).
A deliberate shift away from two-wheelers
Management used its first investor conference call – filed on 20 July 2026 – to outline a multi-year portfolio transformation. “Q1FY27 marks a milestone in its transformation journey … consciously shifting focus entirely to its own higher-yielding retail book,” the call transcript states.
The company disclosed that it has stopped all incremental co-lending business (concall, 20 July 2026). It now expects the two-wheeler book, historically the dominant product, to shrink to around 30% of the overall book, with car, commercial vehicles (CV), construction equipment (CE), and potentially tractors contributing the remaining 70% over a three-to-four-year horizon (FY30 target).
The rationale, as described in the concall, is that the growing product segments carry “structurally lower GNPA levels” — below 1% — helping stabilise credit costs.
Used-car bet and profitability roadmap
The used-car business, a newer vertical, is expected to reach breakeven during FY27, management stated in the 20 July 2026 call.
A flurry of fundraising and rating upgrades
Since the end of Q1, the company has raised funds across multiple instruments:
- On 19 August 2026, it completed its third securitisation transaction of FY27, raising ₹29.81 crore by assigning vehicle-finance receivables worth ₹33.12 crore (BSE filing, 19 Aug 2026).
- On 24 August 2026, it allotted ₹100 crore of non-convertible debentures (NCDs) on a private placement basis. The NCDs carry a 9.25% coupon, monthly interest payments, a 36-month tenure, and will be listed on BSE (BSE filing, 24 Aug 2026).
- Public deposits crossed the ₹100 crore mark as noted in the July concall.
Credit ratings have moved in tandem. CRISIL upgraded its long-term ratings to ‘CRISIL AA-/CRISIL PPMLD AA-/Stable’ from ‘CRISIL A+/CRISIL PPMLD A+/Positive’ on 9 June 2026, and reaffirmed the commercial paper rating at ‘CRISIL A1+’ (BSE filing, 9 Jun 2026). On 29 September 2026, Brickwork Ratings assigned a ‘BWR AA/Stable’ rating to the company’s ₹300 crore fixed deposit programme and reaffirmed the same rating for ₹3,500 crore of fund-based bank loan facilities (BSE filing, 29 Sep 2026).
What the filings say comes next
The company has publicly committed to three targets:
- Two-wheeler book to decline to ~30% of the total portfolio by FY30, with 70% coming from cars, CV, CE, and tractors (stated during 20 July 2026 concall).
- Used-car vertical to achieve breakeven in FY27 (same call).
- No further co-lending business; the focus remains on the company’s own retail lending book.
These are management aspirations, not promises. The filings show a business pivoting its asset mix while securing fresh liabilities at lower rates. How the transition progresses will become visible in the quarters ahead.
