Muthoot Finance has released its Q1 FY25-26 financial results, and the numbers clearly reflect robust growth, improving asset quality, and strong investor confidence. Let’s break down the key highlights and analyze what this means for investors.
Revenue and Profit Surge in Q1 FY25-26
The company reported total income of ₹57,200.02 million, up from ₹48,884.70 million in the previous quarter, marking a 17% sequential growth and a massive 54% YoY jump from ₹37,100.98 million.

- Net Profit (PAT): ₹20,462.99 million, up 90% YoY

This strong performance was driven by higher interest income and lower loan impairment charges, boosting overall profitability.
