Commenting on the performance, Founder & Managing Director, Mr. Rajesh Sharma said:

“Q1 FY22 was a particularly challenging quarter due to the severe second Covid wave which affected a number of CGCL employees and customers. We ensured all timely help to our employees to keep their morale strong. We were quick on our heels with the waning of Covid wave and resumed operations at all levels in June’21. Going forward, we remain optimistic about the growth opportunities over medium-term while being aware and cautious of the still delicate normalization post-second Covid wave.

At CGCL, we have set ourselves an ambitious target of delivering a +20% YoY growth in AUM in FY22 and a medium-term CAGR of 22-27% between FY22E-FY27E. We believe this is an achievable target based on the organic growth opportunities we see in our product segments.”
