Bajaj Finance’s standalone June-quarter (Q1FY27) results held a bigger positive surprise for investors than its consolidated numbers. Annualized standalone net interest margin (NIM) expanded 18 basis points (bps) year-on-year to 12.04%, based on Mint calculations. Consequently, net interest income (NII) rose 24% to ₹11,495 crore, outpacing the 22% growth in average assets under finance (AUF).
