The market read

The credit rating upgrade to 'A-; Stable' indicates improved financial health and reduced risk for the company, which is a positive development.

Manba Finance Limited (MANBA) has announced that CARE Rating Limited has upgraded its credit rating for the company's instruments. The long-term bank facilities rating has been upgraded to 'A-; Stable' from 'BBB+ (Positive)', with an amount of ₹500.00 crore.

Additionally, Non-convertible debentures (NCDs) across various tranches have also seen their ratings upgraded to 'A-; Stable'. These include instruments of ₹100.00 crore (assigned), ₹100.00 crore, ₹166.50 crore (reduced from ₹176.00 crore), ₹100.00 crore, ₹25.00 crore (reduced from ₹33.33 crore), ₹50.00 crore, and ₹100.00 crore. Several NCDs were also marked as withdrawn.

The upgrade reflects the sustained scale-up in Manba Finance's operations, with Assets Under Management (AUM) growing at a CAGR of 36.33% from FY22–FY26, reaching ₹1,712.70 crore as of March 31, 2026, and further to ₹1,730.78 crore as of June 30, 2026. The rating agency noted the company's experienced management, adequate capitalization, and profitability. However, challenges related to moderate asset quality metrics, geographical and product concentration, and the seasoning of newer product segments were also highlighted.
