Crisil Ratings in its latest report has said that securitisation volumes increased by 70 per cent to Rs 35,000 crore in the April–June quarter of FY23 (Q1FY23) and the credit growth at non-banks may take the number to the pre-pandemic highs of Rs 1.9 lakh crore in FY23. It noted that the volumes were high in first quarter of FY23 primarily due to increase in economic activity, while the high growth came on the back of a low base.
According to the report, volumes of securitization, where a financier raises money by giving up on future loan receivables, in the first quarter could have been even higher but for the rising inflation and higher interest rates that have spawned caution over the repayment ability of borrowers, and divergent yield expectations among originators and investors. It said despite the apparent return of enthusiasm among participants, a number of deals fell through at the quarter-end. Still, negligible disruption in collections and stable pool performance supported uptick in volume.
It said mortgage-backed securitisation (MBS) loans comprised 45 per cent of quarterly volume as compared with 53 per cent in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal. Asset backed securitisation (ABS) comprised the balance. More than 80 non-bank entities being present in the market in the first quarter, up from 50 last fiscal, indicates strong comfort originators have with the securitisation process. In ABS, commercial vehicle loans comprised 49 per cent, and microfinance 20 per cent of transaction value, with many underlying loans eligible for priority sector lending (PSL) classification.
