India’s next big financial compounder is not a flashy fintech.
Not a digital NBFC.
Not a metro #multibagger #smallcap #ipo focused mortgage giant.

It is a lender quietly dominating Tier-3 and Tier-4 towns in Chittorgarh, Betul, Sikar, Jalgaon, Katni, Hubli, Rewa, and Bhiwani.

Welcome to the deep dive on India Shelter Finance Corp (ISFC) the housing finance company serving India’s real economy:
sweet shop owners, tailors, mechanics, kirana stores, micro entrepreneurs… and powering their journey from kaccha homes to pucca homes.

In this video, we decode the entire Q2 FY26 Concall not just the headlines, but the structural truths behind India Shelter’s growth engine.

What You’ll Learn in This Video

1. The Quarter That Validated the Business Model

Why even with a temporary slowdown in disbursements, AUM grew 31% YoY, ROA stayed near 6%, and long term compounding remains intact.

2. Margins, Spreads & Funding – Industry Reports Are Extremely Bullish

How stable yields (14.9%), falling cost of funds (8.5%), and strategic borrowings from NHB & SIDBI strengthen profitability.

3. Operating Leverage – The Silent Moat

Why branch expansion beyond 280+ locations is triggering a structural fall in cost ratios.

4. Asset Quality – The Biggest Positive of Q2

Stage-3 flat at 1.2%.
Credit cost at 0.5%.
LGD among India’s lowest due to 45% LTV underwriting.
Why a temporary rise in 30+ DPD is not a red flag.

5. Deep Dive Into Underwriting Discipline

How BRE tightening, FOIR filters, geo-specific risk controls, and pattern-recognition models are protecting the book.

6. Off-Balance Sheet Strategy – A Quiet Profit Driver

Why ISFC’s DA + co-lending model improves ALM, boosts ROE, and builds long-tenor funding safety.

7. Competition & Rate Cycle

Why competition is about staff poaching not pricing.
Why rate cuts barely impact their segment.

8. Macro Tailwinds & FY26–29 Roadmap

GST 2.0 | Capex cycle | Rural rebound | falling inflation → perfect tailwind for India Shelter’s customer base.
