Fintech NBFC NPAs inch up as RBI cracks down on unsecured loans
Several large non-banking finance companies (NBFCs) focused on digital loans are seeing a rise in delayed repayments and rising non-performing assets (NPAs), according to data pieced together by The Arc from credit rating filings. Investors say the numbers have not increased to an alarming level, but they keep a more intense watch on them.
While Navi Finserv’s delinquencies improved in fiscal 2024, the adjusted 90+ DPD (including trailing twelve months’ write-offs) stood elevated at 5.8% as of June 30, 2024, as against 5.4% as of March 31, 2024, and 2.8% as of March 31, 2023, according to Crisil. DPD (days past due) indicates the amount of assets that have missed repayments for over 90 days, after which they become an NPA.

🏢 InsuranceDekho, RenewBuy in talks to merge in $1 Billion Deal!
InsuranceDekho is set to merge with smaller peer RenewBuy in a cash-and-stock deal. The combined entity will be valued at over $1 billion and is expected to raise another round of funding before it considers a public listing.
Sources say the final deal contours are still being discussed and may alter. 🤝
The deal is set to value RenewBuy at approximately Rs 3,000 crore ($360 million) and InsuranceDekho at a little over Rs 5,000 crore ($600 million). The combined entity will take on publicly listed PolicyBazaar and privately held Turtlemint, backed by investors like Nexus and Amansa Capital and valued at $900-950 million. 📊
InsuranceDekho, spun out of the auto-classifieds platform CarDekho, earns about 82% of its premiums from tier-II cities and beyond with a large feet-on-the-street network. RenewBuy's primary business model also focuses on customers in smaller towns, providing a digital platform for insurance agents to access information and tailor various policies. 🌆
