IIFL Finance on Friday reported 15 per cent increase in net profit at Rs 310 crore for December quarter 2021-22, backed by growth in home and gold loan businesses.

The company had logged a net profit of Rs 269 crore in the year-ago period.

Total income during the period under review rose to Rs 1,071 crore from Rs 919 crore in the year-ago quarter.

The non-banking financial company said it has a liquidity comfort at an all-time high at Rs 9,145 crore, which is adequate to meet not only all near-term liabilities but also to fund the growth momentum.

"Our annualized ROE (return on equity) remained above 20 per cent and ROA (return on assets) above 2.5 per cent. With ongoing expansion, operating cost grew 9 per cent quarter-on-quarter," it said.
