Commenting on the performance, Founder & Managing Director Mr. Rajesh Sharma said:

“Q2FY22 was the first full quarter of operations after we resumed lending activity in Jun’21 post second wave lockdown. Our Q2FY22 results are a reflection of the optimism we have expressed in our business and growth opportunities. The robust pick-up in disbursements across all asset categories of CGCL has only added to the momentum which we see gathering further pace as the economy fully unlocks in H2FY22 with gathering pace of vaccination and subdued Covid-19 infections.

At CGCL, we remain committed to our medium-term CAGR of 22-27% between FY22E-FY27E. This is an achiev able target based on the organic growth opportunities we see in our product segments with new products expe cted to add traction in next two years.”
