The Challenge

A housing finance company with ₹2,200Cr AUM was seeing 4.2% of accounts roll from current to 30+ DPD each month — above the portfolio benchmark of 2.8%. Once accounts reached 30+ DPD, resolution cost and time increased 3x. The company needed an early-intervention programme to arrest roll-forward before accounts became stressed.

Our Approach

01

Built a pre-delinquency scoring model using payment behaviour, seasonal income patterns, and property market signals to identify accounts at risk of missing the next EMI.

02

Deployed a 3-day pre-EMI outreach programme: reminder call Day -3, SMS Day -1, WhatsApp confirmation Day 0.

03

For accounts flagged as high-risk, escalated to a specialist 'soft collections' team trained in empathy-first conversations and restructuring facilitation.

04

Achieved 92% contact rate within the 3-day window using multi-channel dialling strategy and optimal time-of-day calling.

05

Monthly reporting to CRO on roll-forward rate by product type, geography, and customer segment.

"Preventing an NPA from forming costs a fraction of resolving it. Ayuda's early-bucket programme is now central to our risk management strategy."
