Muthoot Finance announced a net profit of ₹1,251.1 crore for Q2, slightly above the expected ₹1,250.9 crore, with net interest income (NII) reported at ₹2,518.1 crore, surpassing the poll estimate of ₹2,462.2 crore. Meanwhile, Senco Gold experienced significant sales, exceeding ₹1,000 crore in October, driven by festive celebrations such as Navratri, Diwali, and Dhanteras. Additionally, India’s gold premiums reached a four-month peak, with dealers charging up to $16 per ounce over official domestic prices, reflecting increased retail demand during the festive season.
