Acuité has reaffirmed the long-term rating to ‘ACUITE A’ (read as ACUITE A) on the Rs. 33.80 crore Non convertible debentures of Si Creva Capital Services Private Limited (SCCSPL). The outlook is ‘Stable’. Acuité has reaffirmed the long-term rating to ‘ACUITE A’ (read as ACUITE A) on the Rs. 50.00 crore Non convertible debentures of Si Creva Capital Services Private Limited (SCCSPL). The outlook is ‘Stable’. Rationale for Rating The rating takes into consideration increased scale of operations reflected by the AUM growth, improvement in earnings profile, healthy capitalisation levels and growth in networth through the recent public issue of OnEMI technology solutions limited which owns 100 percent of shareholding in Si Creva Capital Services Private Limited which has continued to demonstrate strong business growth, with AUM increasing by 72.9% to Rs 7,066.44 Cr as on March 31, 2026 from Rs 4,086.64 Cr as on March 31, 2025. The growth was driven by expansion in both the owned book and managed book. The profitability as marked by PAT at consolidated level for FY25 which stood at Rs.160.62 Cr which has improved to Rs 281.45 Cr in FY26. The rating also takes into account the comfortable capital structure at consolidated levels (OnEMI Technology Solutions Limited- OnEMI is the parent company) which is recently been listed on both the exchanges and has received Rs 850 Cr from the public issue. As on June 30, 2026. OnEMI reported Networth and gearing of Rs. 2245.07 Cr. and 0.91 times, respectively. (Networth and gearing of Rs. 1342.78 Cr. and 1.81 times respectively as on March 31, 2026). As of June 30, 2026, the promoters hold 24.8 percent of shareholding in OnEMI Technology Solutions Limited, while remaining is held by Foreign Corporate Bodies ,Domestic and Foreign Institutional Investors and Retail and others. These strengths are however partially offset by inherent risks characteristics associated with the unsecured lending segment. While Acuite takes cognizance of the company’s provision and write-offs policy, asset quality will continue to be a key monitorable given the unsecured nature of portfolio. Additionally, Acuité believes the ability of SCCSPL to profitably scale up its portfolio while maintaining robustness of its technology platform given the evolving nature of FinTech model is also a key rating monitorable. |

The profitability as marked by PAT at consolidated level for FY25 which stood at Rs.160.62 Cr. which has grown to Rs 281.45 Cr. in FY26.

The PL portfolio, backed by a fully digital lending journey, continues to be the primary contributor to AUM, while LAP accounts for 7.7% of total AUM as on June 30,2026.The company has established co-lending partnerships with Piramal Finance, MAS Financial Services,Northern Arc Capital and SMFG India Credit, and recently added Vivriti Capital, Utkarsh SFB, and Aditya Birla Capital. These partnerships have significantly contributed to the growth of off-book AUM. On the sourcing side, the company leverages a diversified mix of merchant channels, partnership channels, digital marketing, and direct website-originated business. The expansion of these sourcing channels has been a key driver of the growth witnessed in the on-book portfolio. The company continued to demonstrate strong business growth, with AUM increasing by 72.9% to Rs 7,066.44 Cr. as on March 31, 2026 from Rs 4,086.64 Cr. as on March 31, 2025. The growth was driven by expansion in both the owned book and managed book, which increased to Rs 3,556.26 Cr. and Rs 3,510.19 Cr, respectively, from Rs 2,474.58 Cr. and Rs1,612.06 Cr in FY25.

The company's total disbursements increased to Rs 12,810 Cr. in FY26 from Rs. 9775.98 Cr. in FY25. Going forward, the ability of the company to grow sustainably would be key monitorables. |
| Weakness |
| Asset quality susceptible to risks; Though increasing write offs
The asset quality of the company has improved slightly for the year where gross NPA stood at 2.12 percent as on March 31, 2026 (2.89 percent as on March 31, 2025). Net NPA stood at 0.29 percent as on March 31,2026 (0.25 percent as on March 31, 2025). For Q1 FY27, the gross NPA stood at 2.25 percent and Net NPA at 0.36 percent.The company's write-offs increased from Rs. 349.34 Cr. in FY24 to Rs. 437.98 Cr. in FY25, before moderating marginally to Rs. 408.74 Cr. in FY26. Going forward, asset quality metrics will remain a key monitorable, with trends in delinquencies, credit costs, and write-offs being critical indicators of portfolio performance. The write-off-to-disbursement ratio will continue to be an important measure of underwriting effectiveness and portfolio quality as the company scales its operations. Technology and regulatory risks Given that innovative technology is the backbone of FinTech business model, the company is exposed to technology risks encompassing data security, privacy and technology failure. Since all the business functions including data storage, disbursals and collections mechanism is done digitally, any breach shall expose the company to cyber events and liabilities arising thereon.The ability of the self-learning algorithms to underwrite better quality assets is still evolving and remains to be proved at the technology front in order to scale up the business operations. |
