The growth is driven by strong growth across all retail segments. The retail book now stands at Rs. 64,274 crore, up 34 percent when compared with the quarter ending June 30, 2022.

Besides, there has been an accelerated reduction in wholesale book by 65 percent YoY i.e., a reduction of Rs, 25,992 crore in line with Lakshya 2026 goals gaining momentum.

Commenting on the financial results, Mr. Dinanath Dubhashi, Managing Director & CEO, L&T Finance Holdings Ltd. said, “It gives me immense pleasure to announce that we have achieved Retailisation of 82% in Q1FY24 itself, much ahead of Lakshya 2026 goal of greater than 80% Retailisation. In fact, we have been able to achieve most of our Lakshya 2026 goals almost 3 years in advance. This achievement is attributed to the twin strategy of strongly growing the retail asset book on one side and ensuring a sharp reduction in the wholesale book on the other, while maintaining best-in-class asset quality.”
