Yes. There are several factors likely to stimulate the share of credit-card
spending in overall private spending. Some of these are highlighted below:
Increased digitisation of payments. The ratio of card payments
to private consumption has increased considerably and
consistently, an average increase of 50bps/year during FY14-19, to
5.3%. There is little sign of this peaking.
Greater security of card transactions. The fear of monetary loss
due to credit-card fraud has traditionally been a major deterrent to

Past trends are very clear on this issue – it is the transaction volume which
has driven the overall credit card spends with relatively small contribution
coming from growth in value per transaction. During 2010-19, the number
of transactions has clocked 25% CAGR and average value of transaction by
2.9% CAGR. We assumed 19% growth in number of transactions and 0.3%
growth in average value during 2020-25.

On SBI Cards
Why should the business growth of SBI Cards be better than the
sector average?
SBI Cards has always grown higher than the sector average. In terms of
volume (no. of transactions), the company registered 34% CAGR vs
sector’s 28% CAGR between FY14-19. Even in terms of credit cards
outstanding, the company registered 24% CAGR vs sector’s 20% CAGR
during FY14-19. In terms of per transaction spend, the company is
marginally higher than the sector average. Thus, when we factor 19.3%
CAGR for the sector over the next five years, we expect the SBI Cards to
grow by 25%.

Volume Per transaction
We made a detailed study on SBI Cards interest and fee income. The
spends based fees (derived from MDR) is as high as 23.5% of income
(revenue from operations). Thus, we see that MDR plays an important part
of income and any loss of income on that front would adversely impact the
income growth. Considering this, it might have to increase its other sources
of income to offset some losses. Yet as argued above, discontinuation of
MDR on credit card transactions remain unlikely.
What percent of SBI’s debit card customer base could be induced to
use credit cards?
The share of credit cards in PoS transactions is 50% for the sector;
for SBI Cards, it is 38%.
The SBI has a huge, ~300m, debit-card customers and a 35%
market share; its credit-card customers number ~10m. Thus, the
bank behemoth has a vast overall cardholder base and an even
deeper distribution channel.
Every year, even if 1% debit-card holders are offered/converted to
MDR is the main source of income for debit cards and it accounts
for less than one fourth of income for credit cards. Moreover,
MDR on debit cards are under threat. Therefore conversion of part
of debit card holders to credit card makes sense.

Does the asset quality situation worsen with the company’s strategy
to focus on small towns and cities?
The company’s asset quality has been steady. At end-FY19, its GNPA was
2.44% (2.33% in H1 FY20) and was stable (averaging 2.5% in the last three
years). This, although higher than the 1.5-1.8% industry average, is
acceptable. High credit costs (averaging 6.6% over FY17-19) crossed 7% at
end-FY19.
Consider a distress situation (because of the slowdown in the economy or
due to unemployment). It is more likely that the credit card payment,
personal loans would be missed given that it is unsecured. Secured loans
(homes and vehicles) would prefer to be paid first because (i) in case of
default, the pledged asset will be seized by the bank/financial institution
and (ii) an emotional value/matter of pride is associated with homes,
vehicles, etc.
Although the company has strong risk-management practices, the
unsecured nature of the business makes it risky. We would watch NPAs as
the company plans expansion to smaller cities and towns. However, 85% of
customers are salaried, which offers us assurance that NPAs may not rise
unproportionately.
