Capital Trust Limited (CAPTRUST) today announced its financial results for the quarter ended 30 June 2026. Following the completion of its business transformation in FY26 and return to operational profitability in Q4FY26, Q1FY27 demonstrated the scalability of Capital Trust’s new business model. Total assets under management (AUM) increased 52% quarter-over-quarter to ₹240 crore, while quarterly disbursements increased 24% to ₹112 crore. The quality of the portfolio continued to improve, with 72% of AUM now secured or carrying zero credit risk. The company reported a profit after tax (PAT) of ₹0.20 crore in Q1FY27.

Q1FY27: From Turnaround to Scalable Growth

FY26 was a year of restructuring and transition for Capital Trust. The company moved away from unsecured MSME lending on its own balance sheet and built two distinct growth engines: secured gold loans on Capital Trust’s own balance sheet and partner-led, risk-capped MSME lending through business correspondents (BC) and co-lending arrangements.

Q1FY27 Highlights

1. AUM Growth Accelerates: Total AUM increased 52% QoQ from ₹158 crore to ₹240 crore, continuing the growth momentum established in Q4FY26.

2. Disbursements: Total disbursements increased to ₹112 crore in Q1FY27, up 24% over Q4FY26, driven by the scale-up of gold loan branches and the continued expansion of BC and co-lending partnerships.

3. Gold Loans Beyond Pilot Stage: Two co-lending partners and three lenders have been onboarded to support the secured Gold Loan book.

4. Portfolio Risk Mix Continues to Improve: The proportion of AUM that is secured or carries zero credit risk increased to 72%, compared with 56% at the end of FY26. Gross non-performing assets (NPA) reduced to 2.7%.

5. Leverage at Historic Lows: External borrowings reduced from ₹93.2 crore as at March 2025 to ₹15.3 crore as at June 2026. Debt/Total Net Worth (TNW): 0.6x. Capital Adequacy Ratio (CRAR): 40%.

6. Profitability Sustained: Profit after tax of ₹0.20 crore, demonstrating consecutive quarters of profitability.

Commenting on the performance, Mr. Yogen Khosla, Managing Director, Capital Trust Limited, said, “Q4FY26 demonstrated that the new model could restore operating profitability. Q1FY27 is the more important step: it demonstrates that the model can scale. Assets under management grew by more than half in a single quarter, while the quality of the portfolio improved alongside its size rather than at the expense of it. Our strategy from here is clear. Gold Loans will be the primary area for incremental deployment of Capital Trust’s balance sheet, supported by term borrowings for secured lending. Our 250-branch MSME network will increasingly be monetized through partner balance sheets, generating fee income with materially lower balance-sheet and credit-risk intensity. This structure allows us to pursue growth with a significantly lower risk profile and greater capital efficiency than our earlier business model. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to our customers, employees, investors, lenders and other stakeholders for their continued trust in our organization.”

Capital Trust enters the remainder of FY27 with a strengthened capital position, low leverage and a business model built on secured own-book lending and partnership-led MSME distribution. The company will continue to expand its gold loan branch network, raise term borrowings for deployment against secured collateral, deepen its BC and co-lending partnerships, and maintain disciplined risk controls as it scales.
