Management Commentary
Mr. Ranvir Singh, Chairman, Director & CEO, commented: \"Q1FY27 marks a landmark quarter in Kissht's journey, as we successfully completed our listing on the NSE and BSE in May 2026 - the culmination of over a decade of building a technology-first lending franchise. This milestone was matched by strong operating momentum, with AUM crossing ₹8,000 crore, up 61% YoY and 13% QoQ. As a listed entity, we now carry forward the same underwriting and collections discipline that got us here, with a sharper focus on capital efficiency and shareholder value creation.\"
