Motilal Oswal Maintains Buy on IIFL Finance with Rs 600 Target on Strong Earnings

Motilal Oswal has maintained a 'Buy' rating on IIFL Finance with a target price of Rs 600, citing strong 4QFY26 financials including a 31% YoY rise in net interest income and a 76% increase in pre-provision operating profit. The brokerage raised FY27 EPS estimates due to higher other income from assignments and co-lending, alongside modest AUM growth. Key growth drivers include the gold loan segment, compliant with revised guidelines, and improving asset quality in the microfinance business.
