Bajaj Finance Ltd. share price target

delivered consistent robust growth with consolidated AUM touching ~4.62 lakh crore. Harnessing its large franchise base digitally offers a huge opportunity. Q2FY26 performance: Bajaj Finance reported a stable Q2FY26 performance with strong AUM (consolidated) growth of 24% YoY to 4,62,261 crore, driven by 1.21 crore new loans (up 26% YoY) and a customer addition of 41.3 lakh, taking the franchise to 11.1 crore. Net Interest Income rose 22% YoY to 10,785 crore, supported by 27-bps QoQ decline in cost of funds to 7.52%.

In Q2 FY26, Bajaj Finance continued to demonstrate robust business growth.
The company booked 12.2 million new loans during the quarter, up 26% from 9.7 million in Q2 FY25. The customer franchise expanded to 110.6 million as of 30 September 2025, compared to 92.1 million a year earlier, marking a 20% increase, with an addition of 4.13 million customers during the quarter.

Bajaj Finance (Bajaj)’s Q2FY26 financial performance was impacted by elevated credit cost in MSME and captive 2W/3W loan segments. 2W’s share of captive stands at 1.5% of total AUM; however, it contributes 9% to total credit during Q2FY26.

Bajaj Finance (BAF)’s PAT grew 23% YoY to ~INR49.5b in 2QFY26 (in line). PAT in 1HFY26 grew at ~23% YoY and we expect PAT in 2HFY26 to grow at ~19% YoY.

BAF’s AUM is expected to grow at 25% (CAGR) for FY25-FY27, driven by favorable government reforms, such as the reduction in GST on auto and consumer durables, which is expected to drive demand.

We have revised our FY26E/FY27E Adj. Book Value estimate by -1.0%/0.2%, respectively, as we factor in higher AUM growth led by proposed GST rate cuts and higher provisioning on account of elevated stress in the unsecured lending portfolio.

Net earnings beat estimates by 2.8% (up by 21.8% y-o-y and 4.8% q-o-q) to Rs. 4,765 crore driven by healthy AUM growth, lower opex and credit cost that was below estimates. NII was almost in line with estimates, growing by 22.3%/4.3% (y-o-y/q-o-q) to Rs. 10,227 crore.

AUM grew 25% YoY to Rs 4,414.5 bn; we expect a similar run-rate in FY26E as the company adds new verticals (Cars, Gold, MFI) and customers (~14-16 mn). Expect NIM to improve by ~10 bps in FY26 supported by a lower cost of borrowing. Credit cost continues to be elevated in the quarter (at 2%) on account of higher stress in the auto/ MSME portfolio. Expect a moderation in FY26, factoring a healthy trend in early-stage delinquencies. We make minor changes to our FY26/FY27 estimates and assign a multiple of 3.9x (unchanged) on Mar'27 ABV with a TP of Rs 900. While we are positive on the growth outlook...

We maintain our BUY recommendation on the stock.
