“The management indicated that the company does not intend to convert into a bank over the next 3 years. BAF will continue to remain focused on building a payment and financial services business and aspire to build a customer franchise of ~100 Mn customers over the next 4-5 years," the brokerage has said.

Axis Securities has given a buy rating on the shares of Bajaj Finance with a target price of 8200 based on the outlook of digital initiatives and business transformation which are key positives for AUM growth. Furthermore, due to increased Opex and marginally higher credit costs, the brokerage has reduced EPS expectations by 3/4 per cent for FY23-24E.
