For nearly a year, Bajaj Finance has been holding surplus liquidity from its equity capital raise and the subsequent stake sale in Bajaj Housing. Over the next two years, it is required to reduce its shareholding in Bajaj Housing Finance to 75%, which will further generate additional excess capital.

Motilal Oswal Report
Bajaj Finance Ltd. delivered a healthy performance during the quarter, supported by robust AUM growth. Despite a sequential rise in credit costs due to the expected credit loss model refresh, asset quality showed notable improvement. Bajaj Finance will look to accelerate its growth in the unsecured segments in FY26, as the stress in its B2C segments gradually dissipates.
The stock trades at 4.1x FY27E. Despite a healthy PAT CAGR of ~25% over FY25- FY27E and RoA/RoE of 4.1%/21% in FY27E, we see limited upside catalysts given the rich valuations and lack of near-term re-rating triggers.
Consequently, we reiterate our Neutral rating on the stock with a target price of Rs 10,000 (premised on 4.5x Mar’27E book value per share).
