New businesses contributed ~21% to the disbursement mix in FY23. New businesses spawned by Cholamandalam will continue to see an improvement in the disbursement run rate and contribute ~12% to the AUM mix by end-FY24.

While Cholamandalam will continue to invest in expanding the team and the distribution in new businesses, we expect these businesses to be return on asset accretive and help Cholamandalam sustainably deliver the guided pre-tax return on total assets of 3.5%.
