Assets under management rose 55.1% to Rs 74,008 crore, return on assets improved to 2.18% from 1.98% in the previous quarter, and gross NPA fell to 1.20% from 1.37%, with credit cost down to 2.19% of average AUM. An 8% gain takes the price to roughly Rs 483, my calculation, or about 28 times annualised Q2 earnings per share of Rs 4.27, so the market is paying for growth that the AUM trend supports. The risks are an unsecured book of 48% of the on-book mix, a cost of borrowing of 7.76% in a rising-rate cycle and a debt to equity ratio of 4.30, and the stock&#8217;s level after the jump is my estimate and not a reported price.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Poonawalla Fincorp share price is a favourite among non-banking finance stocks because the company has scaled its loan book sharply since its 2021 change of ownership. The Q2 results were approved by the board on 9 October and the stock reacted on the first trading day after.<\/p>\n<p>If you hold the stock or are wondering whether the jump leaves room for more, this article covers the Q2 results, the AUM and profitability trend, asset quality, the balance sheet, valuation, levels to watch, the risks in a rising-rate cycle and what to watch next.<\/p>\n<p

class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Rate cycle:<\/strong> The RBI raised the repo rate by 25 bps and Jefferies expects up to 100 bps in total, which can raise borrowing costs beyond the 7.76% now paid.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unsecured mix:<\/strong> About 48% of the on-book mix is unsecured, which is more sensitive to a downturn.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Borrowing:<\/strong> A debt to equity ratio of 4.30 amplifies any funding shock.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Valuation:<\/strong> At about 28 times annualised earnings, a miss can hit the Poonawalla Fincorp share price hard.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unaudited numbers:<\/strong> The results are unaudited, as stated in the exchange filing, so confirm figures before acting on the Poonawalla Fincorp share price.<\/p>\n<h2><span

class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Brokerage target changes after the Q2 results.<\/li>\n<li>AUM growth, disbursements and the credit cost trend in Q3 FY27.<\/li>\n<li>Funding cost movements for NBFC stocks after the RBI hike.<\/li>\n<li>Whether the Poonawalla Fincorp share price holds the gap above Rs 447.30.<\/li>\n<li>Asset quality in the unsecured book.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Poonawalla Fincorp share price jumped about 8% after Q2 FY27 profit rose 405% to Rs 375 crore, AUM grew 55% to Rs 74,008 crore, return on assets rose to 2.18% and gross NPA fell to 1.20%. A multiple near 28 times annualised earnings, a rising-rate cycle and a large unsecured book are the risks to weigh.
