Detailed Rationale

CRISIL has reaffirmed its 'CRISIL AAA/FAAA/Stable/CRISIL A1+' ratings on the debt instruments, bank facilities, and fixed deposits programme of Bajaj Finance Ltd (Bajaj Finance: formerly Bajaj Auto Finance Ltd).

CRISIL's ratings continue to reflect Bajaj Finance's strong business risk profile, given its position as one of the largest retail asset financing non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) in the country, and expectation of comfortable asset quality. Increased focus on risk management and data analytics should mitigate the inherent asset quality challenges in the risky asset segments. Strong capitalisation and healthy earnings also underpin the ratings. The ratings also reflect expectation of support from the Bajaj group and its healthy financial flexibility.

Analytical Approach

The ratings factor in the company's strategic importance to, and significant support expected from, its ultimate holding company Bajaj Holdings and Investments Ltd (BHIL), and parent Bajaj Finserv Ltd (Bajaj Finserv). The ratings also factor benefits arising from synergies with the group.

Key Rating Drivers & Detailed Description
Strengths
* Large, well-diversified NBFC
Bajaj Finance has emerged as one of the largest retail asset financing NBFCs in India, and continues with its two-pronged strategy of building scale and maximising profit. Segments such as mortgages, small business loans, and commercial lending are focused on building scale, while consumer durable loans, personal loans, and 2- and 3-wheeler financing are focused on maximising profit. As on March 31, 2018, assets under management (AUM) grew 33% (year-on-year) to Rs 81,330 crore and consisted primarily of mortgages (loans against property [LAP] and home loans; 21%), personal and consumer durables loans (31%), business loans and vendor financing (16%), loan against securities (8%), 2- and 3-wheeler financing (8%) and others (15%).
 
The LAP book remained almost stable owing to shift in the company's stance of direct sourcing of customers and maintaining a cautious view on the sector. All other segments witnessed growth.

* Strong capitalisation
Capitalisation is strong, with sizeable networth and adequate Tier-I capital adequacy ratio of Rs 17,551 crore and 17.9%, respectively, as on June 30, 2018. To support medium-term growth plans, in September 2017, the entity raised around Rs 4,500 crores via a Qualified Institutional Placement. The promoters have last infused Rs 306 crore through conversion of warrants in November 2016. Gearing policy is conservative. Adjusted gearing has been below 6 times over the past five years, despite aggressive growth in AUM. Despite strong growth plans, capitalisation should remain comfortable over the medium term, supported by regular capital infusion, demonstrated ability to raise capital, and healthy internal cash accruals; thus providing cushion against asset-side risks.

* Healthy earnings
Earnings are supported by a large proportion of high-yield businesses and competitive borrowing costs. In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, return on managed assets (annualised) remained healthy at 3.7% compared to 3.4% during fiscal 2018, driven by higher fee income and a stable net interest margin. Profitability continued to be better than the industry average. Additionally, the company has increased efforts to diversify earnings by focusing on various fee-based income avenues, such as existing member identification cards and third-party product distribution. Earnings remain susceptible to high credit costs, especially during continued macroeconomic stress, despite the conservative provisioning policy. With CRISIL-adjusted provision coverage ratio at around 70% as on June 30, 2018, the coverage exceeded that of peers. While Bajaj Finance's profitability may moderate as the proportion of mortgage loans increases under its housing finance subsidiary, it will remain better than that of peers over the medium term.

* Strategic importance to, and strong expectation of support from, the Bajaj group
Bajaj Finance is strategically important to the Bajaj group, the company gets significant financial, managerial and operational support from its parent, Bajaj Finserv. It also derives synergies from being a captive financier for Bajaj Auto Ltd (Bajaj Auto; rated 'CRISIL AAA/FAAA/Stable/CRISIL A1+'). Bajaj Finance is one of the crucial entities of the group's financial services business, and its established track record of profitable growth enhances its strategic importance. Bajaj Finance also plays a critical role in helping Bajaj Auto meet its sales targets and maintain market share; it financed 33.5% of Bajaj Auto's sales volume in fiscal 2018, from 20% in fiscal 2010.  CRISIL believes Bajaj Finance will continue to receive support from the group.

Bajaj Finserv's financial flexibility has steadily improved over the years supported by performance of its operating companies including insurance ventures. In the unlikely event of Bajaj Finance requiring group support in an extraordinary situation, Bajaj Holdings and Investment Limited has ample liquidity in the form of cash and bank balances and portfolio of quoted investments to address the requirements in the unlikely event of Bajaj Finance requiring group support in an extraordinary situation. In addition, CRISIL believes that there is sufficient flexibility inherent in the market standing of the various listed and unlisted financial services firms in the group. CRISIL also believes that the financial flexibility will be sufficient to support any material requirements of Bajaj Finance even if the group were to step up its stake in the insurance ventures.

Weakness
* Focus on risky asset classes and under-seasoned mortgage loan book
Over the past 18-24 months, risk management processes and data analytics capability have been strengthened. Underwriting norms and monitoring mechanisms in small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) business segments such as business loans and LAP have been reinforced. The unsecured lending business (mainly consumer durables financing and personal loans) has also been supported through investments in risk analytics and technology. Underwriting and collection norms have been tightened based on portfolio performance trends and early warning indicators. The company has also slowed down growth in the LAP business in recent years due to intense competition and is expected to continue to adjust growth plans across business segments in response to market opportunities and challenges. It has revamped its business model in the SME segment and now increasingly focuses on sourcing business through cross-selling to existing customers to support growth. The well diversified loan book and increased focus on risk management and data analytics has enabled it to manage asset quality risks over the past few years and will continue to do so. Asset quality (standalone) remains comfortable with gross non-performing assets (GNPAs) and net non-performing assets (NNPA, 90+ days past due [dpd]1) at 1.39% and 0.44%, respectively, as on June 30, 2018.

The increased focus on risk management is expected to mitigate the inherent asset quality risks following the high growth in recent years and the focus on riskier asset segments. A significant proportion of Bajaj Finance's portfolio comprising mortgage loans has witnessed strong growth over the past few years and remains under-seasoned. Additionally, the company has high exposure to risky asset segments such as personal loans and consumer durable loans, 2- and 3-wheeler finance, and unsecured business loans, which constituted around 50% of its loan portfolio as on March 31, 2018, and are vulnerable to economic cycles. Furthermore, competition, especially in the retail and SME financing business, has intensified significantly with increased focus by private and public sector lenders and the entry of new banks. However, the share of secured assets segments such as mortgages is expected to rise over the medium term, which will help improve asset quality.
Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes Bajaj Finance will remain strategically important to, and continue to receive support from, the Bajaj group. The company will also sustain its healthy financial risk profile. The outlook may be revised to 'Negative' if there is a significant deterioration in asset quality or earnings of Bajaj Finance, or diminution in support from the Bajaj group, or weakening, in CRISIL's view, of the group's credit risk profile.

Bajaj Finance has a diversified product suite comprising key businesses such as vehicle loans (2- and 3-wheelers manufactured by Bajaj Auto), consumer durable loans, personal loans, mortgage loans, small business loans, loans against securities, commercial finance, and rural finance. Bajaj Finance is the largest financier of 2-wheelers and consumer durables in India. Profit after tax (PAT) was Rs 2647 crore on total income (net of interest expense) of Rs 8744 crore in fiscal 2018, against Rs 1836 crore and Rs 6100 crore, respectively, the previous fiscal.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, PAT was Rs 834 crores on total income (net of interest expense) of Rs 2502 crores compared to Rs 456.4 crore and Rs 1754.6 crores respectively during the corresponding period of the previous fiscal.

1Portfolio performance is measured by 30+ dpd, 90+ dpd, 120+ dpd, 150+ dpd, and 180+ dpd (depending on the loan tenure), which are defined as the sum of overdue and future principal for contracts overdue for more than 30, 90, 120, 150, and 180 days, respectively, expressed as a percentage of portfolio outstanding at that point in time.

CRISIL is registered in India as a credit rating agency with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (“SEBI”). With a tradition of independence, analytical rigour and innovation, CRISIL sets the standards in the credit rating business. We rate the entire range of debt instruments, such as, bank loans, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, non-convertible / convertible / partially convertible bonds and debentures, perpetual bonds, bank hybrid capital instruments, asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities, partial guarantees and other structured debt instruments. We have rated over 24,500 large and mid-scale corporates and financial institutions. CRISIL has also instituted several innovations in India in the rating business, including rating municipal bonds, partially guaranteed instruments and microfinance institutions.
