Key Points

• Tata Capital’s stock fell 2.4% to ₹322.55.
• Initial offer price was ₹326, then opened at ₹330.
• Company is a non-banking finance company (NBFC).
• AUM is ₹2.3 trillion, servicing 7.3 million customers.
• Falling provision buffers (PCR 58.5%) raise credit loss concerns.
• Rising borrowing costs (7.8%) threaten profitability and growth.

Tata Capital is a financial services company, part of the Tata Group. They provide loans and other financial products to individuals, businesses, and institutions. The company was newly listed on October 13, 2025, beginning with an opening price of ₹330.

A major concern highlighted is the declining “coverage ratio,” which measures the protection against potential losses. It’s currently at 58.5%, which means there’s less cushion for the company to handle loan defaults. This is especially worrying because 87.5% of their loans are to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and retail customers, which can be more risky.

Furthermore, the cost of borrowing for Tata Capital has increased. It rose to 7.8% in FY25 from 6.6% in FY23. Higher interest payments can squeeze the company’s profits, particularly when they’re competing with traditional banks.

To maintain access to funds, Tata Capital needs to keep its credit ratings high and investors confident. Any drop in ratings or a shortage of money in the market could make it harder for them to borrow and slow down their growth.

J.M. Financial initiated coverage with a ‘Buy’ rating and a target price of ₹360, valuing the stock at 2.9x FY27E Price to Book ratio. The brokerage noted that 80% of the loan book is in secure segments and retail finance accounts for 61% of the loans.

Analysts predict Tata Capital will grow its AUM by 20% between FY25 and FY27E, with operational costs remaining steady and credit costs declining gradually after FY26E. This would result in a 34% increase in profit over those years, with a Return on Assets (RoA) of 1.9% – 2.5%.

Ultimately, Tata Capital’s success depends on its ability to manage risk and maintain a strong financial position within a competitive market.
