Muthoot Finance Surpasses Q4 Profit Estimates on Strong Gold Loan Growth

Muthoot Finance, one of India’s top gold loan providers, reported a robust fourth-quarter profit of ₹15.08 billion, exceeding analysts’ expectations of ₹14.91 billion. The company’s growth was fueled by strong demand for gold-backed loans, boosted by record-high gold prices that increased collateral value and loan sizes.
The shift in consumer preference toward secured lending was also influenced by a slowdown in unsecured loans amid rising defaults, making gold loans a safer financing option. Muthoot’s standalone loan assets under management surged 43% year-on-year to ₹1.09 trillion, while interest income climbed approximately 42% to ₹47.84 billion.
In comparison, rival Manappuram Finance recently reported losses, impacted by stress in its microfinance segment.
