14 November 2019 REPCOs PAT was up 51% YoY at INR1.01b (37% beat), driven by low credit costs and a 1% tax rate (INR150m DTL reversal impact). Core PBT, however, grew 2% YoY to INR1.02b (4% beat). Disbursements were down 10% YoY at INR7b, driven by a decline in both home loan and LAP disbursements.

The company wrote-off INR90m in the quarter (a mix of home loan and LAP). disbursements declined 7% YoY to INR13.7b, while spread was largely stable at 3%.
