While part of the fall could be attributed to the sharp rally of 133 per cent in CY2017 alone, a finer reading of its September quarter (Q2) performance indicates that competition is perhaps catching up faster than expected on Bajaj Finance's consumer durables business. While the assets under management (AUM) for its core consumer lending business grew by a robust 42 per cent year-on-year to Rs 33,815 crore in Q2, disbursal of its vehicle financing and consumer durables financing segments were wobbly, prompting investors to ask if Bajaj Finance should up its ante in these segments. As a rub-off of Bajaj Auto's unstable domestic sales volumes in the recent times, vehicle loan disbursals (two-wheelers and three-wheelers) dipped for the first time in many quarters by four per cent ..

However, provisions for the quarter were higher due to an additional charge of Rs 89 crore on account of demonetisation. "Post demonetisation we estimated the resultant impact on our book at Rs 100 - 120 crore. Of this, we have provided Rs 89 crore in Q4. So, there could be some spill over in the next quarter also," explains Rajeev Jain, managing director, Bajaj Finance. Jain attributes much of the incremental ...
