Mumbai : AU Small Finance Bank (AU SFB), India’s largest small finance bank and the first in over a decade to receive in-principle approval to transition into a Universal Bank, today announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, reporting strong growth across all key parameters.
Commenting on the performance, Mr. Sanjay Agarwal, Founder, MD & CEO of AU Small Finance Bank said, “Even as the global environment navigates heightened geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainties, India continues to stand out for its resilience and sustained domestic momentum. This reinforces my conviction in the strength of India’s economic fundamentals and the immense opportunity that its long-term growth journey presents. Equally, I draw confidence from the strength we are building at AU. Strong institutions are built not merely for favourable conditions, but to navigate cycles while remaining firmly focused on the long term.
This quarter’s performance is a reflection of the institution we are steadily building, one that combines growth with profitability, and ambition with prudence. The balanced growth of our franchise, improving profitability and stable asset quality reinforce our confidence that the foundations for sustained, long-term performance are firmly in place. As we scale, our priorities remain clear: protect our customers’ interests, strengthen governance and continue investing in the capabilities that will shape our future. We remain watchful of the evolving environment, but the strength of our balance sheet and franchise gives us confidence to navigate uncertainties, sustain our momentum and continue building AU as a resilient, sustainable and trusted institution.”
Overall, AU Small Finance Bank delivered a strong performance while remaining focused on deepening customer relationships, strengthening its deposit and liability franchise, building technology-led capabilities and leveraging AI. The Bank maintained a disciplined approach to growth, profitability and asset quality while delivering consistent performance across key business parameters.
