Why Bajaj Finance Shares Fall
- Worse than expected profit growth: The company’s profit has increased by 17% on an annual basis. But this increase was less than the expectations of market analysts. This disappointed the investors.
- Increase in Non-Performing Assets (NPAS): The company’s NPAS increased during the January-March quarter. This means that the company did not receive interest and loan repayment on the loan it gave. During this period, the company’s gross NPA fell by 1.12% to 0.96%.
- High valuation and market expectations: Bajaj Finance stock was trading at ₹ 9,093 on 28 April. Its market capitalisation was ₹ 564,262.91 crore, and its P/E ratio was 38.38, well above the sector average of 30.79. This high valuation eliminates the margin of error and leads to correction in case of lower-than-expected profits.
