Mahindra & Mahindra Financial Services advanced 2.52% to Rs 152.75 after the company's disbursements rose by 42% to approximately Rs 2,750 crore in December 2021 as compared with December 2020.

For the third quarter (October-December 2021), the total disbursement stood at approximately Rs 18,100 crore, registering a Y-o-Y growth of 39%.
