India's retail asset securitisation rises Rs 52,000 cr in Q1 FY26
This includes both pass-through certificate (PTC) issuances and direct assignment (DA) transactions, according to CareEdge Ratings report. The volume represents a 6 per cent growth over the same period previous year.
Despite this, the market's stability is a positive sign, driven by strong demand for credit, confidence from investors, and the strategic efforts of originators to diversify their funding sources.
One of the most significant milestones in Q1 FY26 was the completion of India's first residential mortgage-backed securitisation (RMBS) deal, carried out by RMBS Development Company Limited (RDCL).
This deal was also the first securitisation transaction to be executed on the Electronic Book Provider (EBP) platform, which marks a new chapter in India's securitisation market. This transaction could act as a catalyst for more investors to enter the RMBS sector, potentially boosting innovation and participation in mortgage-backed securities. The move is expected to create more long-term funding opportunities and allow for better risk transfer.
Looking at the transaction composition in Q1 FY26, there has been a noticeable shift. PTC transactions now make up 56 per cent of the total volume, which marks a significant change from previous periods when direct assignment (DA) transactions were more dominant.
The increase in PTCs likely reflects changing preferences among investors, regulatory factors, and a growing desire for more standardised and tradable financial products. This shift also suggests that originators are looking to attract a broader investor base.
Among the PTC issuances, asset-backed securitisation (ABS) products were a major contributor, accounting for around 75 per cent of the total volume.
Mortgage-backed securitisation (MBS), on the other hand, remained steady at 10 per cent. A key highlight in Q1 FY26 was the rise in PTC issuances from Microfinance Institutions (MFIs).
MFIs contributed 15 per cent of the total PTC volumes, a significant increase from 8 per cent in Q1 FY25. This growth reflects greater stability in asset quality within the microfinance sector, and suggests that investor confidence in this space is on the rise.
In the ABS category, vehicle loan financing continued to be a major player, contributing over Rs 14,600 crore, or 51 per cent of total PTC issuances in Q1 FY26.

From hotel cancellation to loss of baggage, Ahmedabad air crash victims opted for array of insurance
'We have received claims primarily under travel insurance and personal accident insurance products. These include accidental death, trip cancellations, loss of baggage and hotel cancellations. The incident has triggered claims under various insurance categories like travel, personal accident, and life insurance, including those from Kisan Credit Card holders. Ahmedabad, Jul 13 (PTI) From hotel booking cancellations to loss of baggage, and from accidental death coverage to trip plan withdrawals, insurance companies have received a range of claims from the kin of the Ahmedabad Air India plane tragedy victims. 'At ICICI Lombard, we are working on a priority basis to provide seamless assistance and ensure timely settlement. We remain committed to supporting our policyholders and their families during this difficult time,' Priya Deshmukh, Head Health Products, Operations & Services, ICICI Lombard, said in response to a query by PTI. On June 12, the London-bound Boeing 787 Dreamliner began to lose thrust almost immediately after taking off from the Ahmedabad airport and ploughed into a medical college hostel in Meghaninagar area, killing all but one of the 242 onboard and another 19 on the ground in the deadliest aviation accident in a decade. Bajaj Allianz General Insurance said it has received claims related to personal accidents and marine cargo. 'We have received three claims related to travel personal accidents coverage and one under marine cargo insurance,' Bajaj Allianz General Insurance said in response to a PTI query. Marine cargo insurance typically covers goods in transit via road, rail, air, sea, or courier. Personal accident claims have emerged as a significant category, second only to life insurance. However, most insurers have refrained from disclosing the exact number or details of claims, citing the ongoing process of receiving formal requests from the families of the deceased. In one notable case, a group personal accident policy covering 4,000 people in Mehsana district resulted in a claim settlement within a week of the crash, a representative of the insurer said. A New India Assurance official said the company has settled seven claims related to personal accidents and five group personal accident claims. One claim of Rs 50,000 was availed under the Kisan Credit Card scheme. Immediately after the accident, the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) issued directives to fast-track the settlement of claims. In a circular dated June 14, the IRDAI asked all insurance companies to submit weekly updates on claims from June 16 onwards and further directed them to appoint nodal officers, waive formalities such as FIRs and postmortem reports, and expedite disbursals under life and personal accident policies. Company representatives said they have been expediting the claims received from the families. They said several kin are still grappling with the loss and would eventually approach them if there are any claims. Axis Max Life Insurance COO Manu Lavanya said that under the company's InstaClaim process, 'we were able to settle a claim for one of the victims of the tragedy within just three hours, which reflects our focus on empathetic action when it matters most.'
