Stars
Electric Vehicle Financing
By end-2025 Cholamandalam Investment and Finance holds a leading market share (~28%) in electric vehicle (EV) financing in India, driven by a 48% CAGR in financed EV volumes since 2022 and a financed book of ~INR 4,200 crore in the EV segment.
Chola’s dense dealership partnerships (over 2,500 EV touchpoints) and tailored underwriting for battery health and resale value have cut 12-month default rates to 1.6%, below the industry EV avg of 2.9%.
High segment growth—EV registrations up 76% Y/Y in 2025—and Chola’s product pricing have delivered ROA of ~1.9% on the EV portfolio, marking this as a Stars quadrant business in the BCG matrix.
Affordable Home Loans
Affordable Home Loans: Affordable housing in India grew ~12% YoY in 2024, driven by subsidies and Tier 2/3 urbanization; Chola (Cholamandalam Investment and Finance Company Limited) scaled this unit using its rural/semi‑urban network to capture market share.
High demand and a focused capital push led Chola to allocate ~18% of its loan book to affordable housing by Sep 2025, making it a primary driver of asset growth and portfolio diversification.
MSME Business Loans
MSME Business Loans are a Star for Cholamandalam Investment and Finance: India’s formalisation boosted MSME credit demand, with MSME loan book growing ~18% YoY in FY2024 and Chola holding an estimated 12–15% market share in targeted non-salaried MSME segments.
Chola’s deep expertise in non-traditional credit (merchant cashflows, GST analytics) sustains high share as sector expands at double digits; digital credit-assessment investment (AI scoring, bank-GST APIs) is needed but yields strong long-term ROA uplift.
Used Vehicle Finance
By end-2025, India’s used vehicle market grew ~15% YoY versus 6% for new sales; Cholamandalam Investment and Finance (Chola) is a preferred lender, funding ~₹18,900 crore in used-vehicle AUM (FY25), earning higher yields than new-vehicle loans.
Chola’s strong share in pre-owned commercial and passenger segments delivers 250–350 bps higher net interest margin, letting it capture premium margins as secondary-market volumes expand into western and central clusters; volume growth remains double-digit.
- Used market growth: ~15% YoY (2025)
- Chola used-vehicle AUM (FY25): ~₹18,900 crore
- Extra NIM vs new: 250–350 bps
- Geographic expansion: western/central clusters, double-digit volume gains
Consumer and Small Enterprise Loans

Using advanced analytics and fintech partnerships, Chola captured ~18% share of organised digital small-ticket lending in urban India (2024), but the channel needs high promotional spend—marketing and acquisition costs ~6.5% of NII.
The segment projects high CAGR ~30% over 2025–27, driven by rising digital consumption and smartphone penetration; customer LTV breakeven typically occurs in 10–14 months.
- AUM FY2024 ₹4,200 cr

- Digital small-ticket market share ~18% (2024)

Cash Cows
New Commercial Vehicle Finance
New Commercial Vehicle Finance is the cash cow of Cholamandalam Investment and Finance (Murugappa Group), commanding ~25% retail CV market share in India (2024) and delivering steady NII; FY2024 CV portfolio ~INR 24,500 crore with RoA ~1.9%, generating surplus cash with low capex and limited marketing needs.
Loan Against Property

Generated cash funds debt servicing and dividends—interest cover supported a net debt/EBITDA ~1.5x in FY2024 and dividend payout ~25% of PAT.
Tractor and Farm Equipment Finance

Growth tracks monsoon-driven agricultural cycles, so volume swings of +/-6–8% year-on-year are common, yet low incremental capex and high collection efficiency keep it a reliable liquidity source for the group.
Construction Equipment Finance
Construction Equipment Finance: demand has plateaued into steady replacement cycles after recent national infrastructure build-outs; industry OEM tractor-trailer/earthmover demand grew just 2% in FY2024, signaling replacement-led volume.
Cholamandalam (Chola) retains market leadership with ~22% share in CE financing as of Mar 2025, leveraging decade-long contractor and fleet ties; FY2024 segment EBIT margin ~28%, requiring minimal promotional spend—classic cash cow.
