Aavas Financiers share price touched a 52-week high of ₹1,994.45 on March 20, 2025, rising 4% in intraday trade on the NSE. The stock has surged 7% in the past 2 trading sessions, surpassing its previous high of ₹1,978.25 recorded in June 2024. Despite this strong performance, it remains significantly below its all-time high of ₹3,336.95, which was reached in February 2022.

SBI Mutual Fund Reduces Stake

On March 19, 2025, Aavas Financiers announced that SBI Mutual Fund had reduced its stake in the company. The fund sold 7.544 million shares through an open offer, bringing its holding down from 9.587% to just 0.056%.

Promoter Stake Sale and New Ownership

In August 2024, Kedaara Capital and Partners Group, the promoters of Aavas Financiers, signed an agreement to sell their entire stake to Aquilo House Pte. Ltd., part of the CVC Capital Partners group. Following the completion of the share purchase agreement (SPA) and an open offer to public shareholders, Aquilo House Pte. Ltd. will become the new promoter of Aavas Financiers, replacing Kedaara Capital and Partners Group. The transaction is pending regulatory approval.

Stable Credit Ratings and Strong Funding Support

CARE Ratings recently reaffirmed its stable rating for Aavas Financiers. The company has strong banking relationships with institutions such as PNB, SBI, and HDFC Bank. It also receives funding from international agencies like the Asian Development Bank (ADB), International Finance Corporation (IFC), and British International Investment (formerly CDC).

Business Growth and Financial Performance

Aavas Financiers primarily provides housing loans to low- and middle-income self-employed customers in semi-urban and rural India. It also offers Loan Against Property (LAP) and MSME loans.

In the past 2 months, the company’s stock price has surged 20%, outperforming the market. Key financial highlights include:

  • AUM Growth: Assets under Management (AUM) increased 20% YoY to ₹19,238 crore as of Q3FY25.
  • Disbursements: Loans disbursed in Q3FY25 grew by 17% YoY and 23% sequentially to ₹1,594 crore. For the April-December 2024 period, disbursements rose 11% YoY to ₹4,099 crore.
  • Profitability: Loan spreads improved to 4.94% in Q3FY25 from 4.89% in the previous quarter.
  • Asset Quality: The 1+dpd (delinquency rate) improved to 3.85% in Q3FY25 from 3.97% in Q2FY25, with further improvements expected in Q4FY25.

Government Policies Supporting Growth

The government’s launch of Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) 2.0, which includes an interest subsidy for urban housing, is expected to boost loan accessibility for low-income groups. This initiative aligns with the company’s goal of expanding homeownership in India.

Future Growth Plans

Aavas Financiers is targeting 25% growth in loan disbursements and is expanding into Southern India, which is expected to drive further business growth. The company also sees strong potential in the MSME loan segment, which offers higher yields of around 15%.

Technology and Operational Efficiency

The company recently upgraded its major technology platforms, completing one of the fastest tech transformations in the industry. With these improvements now stabilising, Aavas Financiers believes it has set a strong foundation for sustainable, scalable, and profitable growth.

Conclusion

With robust financial growth, expanding market reach, and a strong funding base, Aavas Financiers is well-positioned for sustainable and profitable expansion.
