Its net interest income (NII) - or the difference between interest earned and interest paid - expanded by 23 per cent to Rs 2,020 crore, while revenue from operations grew 17.4 per cent to Rs 3,784.4 crore for the first quarter of the current financial year, according to the company.

“The results you see for the quarter reflect the success of our five-pillar strategy. The focus is on enhancing customer acquisition through the creation of a robust funnel and contiguous products, sharpening credit underwriting through the deployment of our proprietary digital credit engine, ‘Project Cyclops’, building a futuristic digital architecture to drive innovation, increasing brand visibility through amplified share of voice, and capability building through the recruitment and upskilling of tech talent, which is resulting in robust performance," said Sudipta Roy, Managing Director and CEO, LTF. 

L&T Finance logged a 28 per cent jump in rural business finance disbursements to Rs 5,773 crore for the fiscal first quarter, driven by the deepening of the customer acquisition funnel, both horizontally through expansion into newer locations and vertically through increasing the number of customers across existing locations.
