He said there is good demand of auto, housing and personal loans and the company expects robust demand in the third and fourth quarter of this fiscal.
"... We are growing much better than the average credit growth of the country ... First quarter growth was not that big ... but we are seeing significant growth beginning of second quarter and I am hoping we will see further growth in the last two quarters," he added.
The company expects at least 50 to 60 per cent loan growth in the current fiscal, Kadle said.
Tata Capital today announced the scale up of its consumer finance and advisory business (CFAB), which aims to be a one- stop shop for providing the entire financial requirements through a single window.
"The company has created a unique, common sales and service structure which dovetails all consumer finance and advisory products and services into a common branch network," Kadle said.

By the end of 2009, the company plans to cover 80 cities across the country through a chain of around 120 branches.
Tata Capital said that these touch points will offer a diverse mix of retail offerings in the ares of consumer loan products and investment advisory services.

To cater to the needs of branches, Tata Capital plans to recruit around 600 people taking its head count to 1,000 by the end of this fiscal.
