Speaking in an interview with CNBC-TV18, Ramachandran said, “The second wave of COVID-19 had an impact in terms of collection. However, the trend was encouraging and we see the trend continue to get the momentum going in July.”
On disbursement, he said, “The momentum in disbursal has started. The credit offtake was lower, both from customers’ end the requirements were muted and we are also cautious in making sure that we are funding the only customers with both ability and intent.”
