L&T Finance (LTFH) recently raised equity capital amounting to INR30b, of whichINR20b came from the parent (L&T). As a result, leverage has declined from previous elevated levels of ~8.5x to ~6.1x now. We believe LTFH is now well capitalized for growth, and will not need to raise equity capital at least in the next 3-4 years. Over the past two years, there has been a modest increase in the share of retail loans from 26% to 30%. On the wholesale lending front, there has been a mix shift toward real estate finance (its share has increased from 6% to 12% over the same period), while the contribution of other wholesale finance segments (infra, structured finance, etc.) has declined. However, the increased share of real estate finance is likely to translate into strong growth in the retail home loan segment in the coming years, in our view.
