“The year 2025 was a defining year for the NBFC ecosystem and for Moneyboxx Finance in particular. It marked a clear shift from recovery-led growth to structurally stronger, more resilient lending models in rural and semi-urban India. For us, the year reinforced the strength of our phygital approach, combining deep on-ground engagement with technology-led underwriting. We expanded our footprint to over 160 branches across 12 states, deepened our presence in core rural markets, and continued to scale responsibly while maintaining portfolio quality. The broader ecosystem also saw increased adoption of digital underwriting, greater institutional participation, and a more prudent shift towards secured and diversified lending, reflecting a maturing sector focused on sustainability rather than just scale.
As we look ahead to 2026, we see both complexity and opportunity shaping rural and micro-enterprise lending. On the risk side, factors such as interest rate volatility, inflationary pressures, and uneven rural income cycles will require lenders to remain disciplined in credit assessment and capital management. However, the opportunity remains compelling. A large segment of India’s micro and small enterprises continues to remain underserved by formal finance, especially first-time borrowers, women entrepreneurs, and livestock-dependent households.
In 2026, growth will increasingly favor lenders who combine local market understanding with data-driven decision-making. At Moneyboxx, our focus will remain on strengthening our secured, leveraging alternative data for sharper underwriting, and expanding value-added services that support borrower income stability. We believe the next phase of rural lending will be less about aggressive expansion and more about building long-term partnerships that enable sustainable livelihoods, resilient portfolios, and inclusive economic growth across India.”

December 26, 2025 10:20Share Market Live Updates: Market analysis by Vikram Subburaj, CEO, Giottus
Bitcoin continues to drift in thin holiday conditions, settling back toward the $86,000-$88,000 zone with little urgency from either buyers or sellers. ETF flows remain negative, liquidations are steady but controlled, and sentiment indicators have stayed pinned in extreme fear for nearly two weeks without provoking a reversal. This points to a market waiting for liquidity and conviction to return rather than one actively repricing fundamentals.
The macro environment explains the divergence. Hard assets are leading the scarcity trade as silver surges past major thresholds and gold grinds toward fresh highs — signals of capital responding to physical tightness, geopolitical stress, and energy-linked supply constraints. Bitcoin, by contrast, has been trading more like a liquidity-sensitive, high-beta asset into year-end, attracting neither defensive inflows nor institutional rebalancing. With consumer confidence softening and ETF allocations retreating, the tone remains cautious until broader liquidity improves.
Altcoins reflect this risk aversion. Reduced appetite, mechanical pressure from ETF outflows, and ongoing long liquidations have kept large caps shadowing Bitcoin lower, often with greater downside torque. Smaller tokens continue to show isolated spikes, but follow-through is weak. In an environment dominated by macro stress and concentration in perceived safe assets, altcoins remain exposed and reactive.
Our advice:
Liquidity is the missing ingredient, not conviction. Maintain a patient, risk-managed stance into year-end, accumulating only near well-defined supports and avoiding leverage in thin markets. Wait for signs of improving ETF flows and stronger institutional participation before adding meaningful risk. Altcoins are likely to stabilise only after Bitcoin finds firmer footing with clearer inflows.

December 26, 2025 08:43Share Market Live Updates: Macro and market update this morning
Signs of softening momentum in the US labour market are becoming clearer. Heavy truck sales have fallen to 5.1 million units over the past 12 months, the lowest level since 2020 and, excluding the pandemic, an eight-year low. Annual sales have declined by around 1.1 million units over the last 18 months, a trend that has historically acted as a leading indicator of rising unemployment. If this relationship holds, the US unemployment rate could rise by at least 1.0 percentage point over the next six months, suggesting growing downside pressure on the labour market.
Against this backdrop, China is intensifying efforts to stabilise its property sector. Beijing’s municipal authorities further eased home-purchase curbs, lowering the minimum down payment for second-home buyers using housing provident fund loans to 25% from 30%. Families with more than one child will also be allowed to purchase an additional home in downtown Beijing, signalling a more accommodative stance to revive housing demand amid falling prices.
In parallel, China is moving to counter a prolonged slowdown in foreign capital inflows. Authorities expanded the 2025 catalogue of industries eligible for foreign investment incentives, adding over 200 sectors and revising around 300. The focus remains on advanced manufacturing, modern services, and green and high-tech industries. The revised catalogue will come into effect on February 1, 2026.
Meanwhile, foreign consumer demand showed signs of recovery. Shipments of foreign-branded mobile phones in China surged 128.4% YoY in November, driven largely by Apple’s iPhones. Overall mobile phone shipments rose 1.9% YoY to 30.16 million units, with foreign brands accounting for 6.93 million units.
Turning to Japan, fiscal policy remains in focus. Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi sought to ease market concerns, stating that the government’s draft budget maintains discipline by limiting reliance on debt. The budget for the fiscal year starting in April is set at 122.3 trillion yen, and will be finalised and submitted to parliament early in 2026.
Despite these assurances, Japan’s fiscal stance remains expansionary. The government plans to issue around 29.6 trillion yen ($189 bn) of new bonds to fund the FY26 budget, exceeding the 28.6 trillion yen issuance planned for the current fiscal year.
At the same time, inflation dynamics continue to strengthen the case for policy tightening. Core consumer prices in Tokyo rose 2.3% YoY in December, remaining above the Bank of Japan’s 2% target. With core inflation exceeding the target for nearly four years and wage growth holding up, the BOJ has reiterated its readiness to raise rates further if economic conditions improve.
On the domestic front, India announced reforms to reduce red tape in import quality checks, addressing concerns raised by the US over burdensome compliance requirements. The changes include reduced paperwork, shorter approval timelines, and fewer inspections, aimed at easing trade frictions.
Looking ahead, India and the European Union are set to hold crucial trade talks in early January. Discussions will cover geographical indications, critical mineral exports, the EU’s carbon border adjustment mechanism, and India’s steel export concerns, with officials working towards a swift agreement.

– The blockbuster years of fundraising through IPOs (2024-25): The Indian IPO market has experienced another blockbuster year in 2025, raising INR1.95t through more than 365 IPOs to date – at an all-time high. This achievement follows an impressive 2024, when the Indian IPO market flourished with issuances totaling INR1.90t across 336 IPOs. Notably, the main board’s contribution to total IPOs remains high at 94% in 2025 vs. 94.8% in 2024.
– Opportunities abound: This remarkable growth can largely be attributed to the evolving nature of Indian equities, which are introducing new dimensions to the investment landscape, underpinned by robust fund inflows. Over the past 24 months, IPOs have emerged from companies across a diverse range of sectors, rather than being confined to a select few or primarily emerging sectors, as was common in previous years. This diversification is, in our opinion, a positive indicator for the Indian capital markets, as it offers investors multiple opportunities to participate in India’s growth narrative.

(2) Narrative on export-oriented segments; DPD trends in micro-LAP, CV, affordable housing. Credit cost estimate: Relatively higher for IIB at >2.9% (incl accelerated provisioning), RBK/AUBANK at 1.9%/1.5% (improving a tad qoq), AXSB at ~1%, KMB at 0.7%, HDFCB/ICICIBC/FB at 40-60bps. PSBs at 25-50bps. (3) QoQ credit growth of 3.0-5.0% (except IIB). [4] Modest treasury gain; some upward expense pressure from volume-linked cost, new labour laws. We roll over valuation to Mar’27 and correspondingly revise TPs for most of the banks. Open 90D +ve CW on HDFCB, KMB. Downgrade FB to Neutral from Buy post 30% outperformance in past 3 months.
