For the December quarter, net profit climbed to Rs 665 crore from Rs 548 crore in the year-ago period. This growth was supported by a 19% increase in net interest income (NII), which rose to Rs 963 crore from Rs 806 crore in the same period last year. NII, the core income a lender earns from interest on loans after accounting for interest paid on deposits and borrowings, serves as a key measure of a finance company’s profitability.

Bajaj Housing Finance’s Assets Under Management (AUM)—a measure of the total value of loans it manages—grew 23% year-on-year to Rs 1.33 lakh crore, with loan assets rising to Rs 1.17 lakh crore from Rs 95,570 crore. This growth reflects the company’s expanding loan book and market presence.

The company’s net total income jumped 24% YoY to Rs 1,153 crore, while operating efficiency improved, with operating expenses falling slightly to 19% of net total income from 20% in the previous year.

Bajaj Housing Finance also reported a one-time exceptional item of Rs 13.14 crore, related to an increase in gratuity liability following changes in India’s New Labour Codes issued in November 2025.
