Highlights:

The last quarter had several positives (i) the waning of second wave (ii) India outpacing other  countries in terms of increased vaccination drive and (iii) A good monsoon. These events have led  to expectations of a swift revival of Indian economy.  

These expectations have been supported by uptrend in economic indicators like tax collections,  power consumption, vehicle registrations, highway toll collection and e-way bills. This economic  revival has led to a sharp recovery in Chola’s disbursements and collections during Q2 FY22. 

We continue to hold Management and additional overlay provisions at 700 Cr. Apart from this, we  have created 10% additional provision for all restructured accounts as per RBI guidelines.
