The company had posted a net loss of Rs 1,573.40 crore in April-June 2021-22.
The loss in the year-ago period was due to the impact of second wave of COVID-19, Mahindra & Mahindra Financial Services (Mahindra Finance) said.
The net profit in the period was 62 per cent lower when compared to the previous March quarter.
Total income during April-June 2022-23 increased to Rs 2,914 crore from Rs 2,567 crore earlier, Mahindra Finance said in a regulatory filing.

Ramesh Iyer, Vice Chairman and Managing Director, Mahindra Finance said the company has been able to report a satisfactory top-line and bottom-line performance on the back of growth in asset book and control on asset quality.
"The first quarter of last year was impacted due to second wave of COVID-19. As the year progressed, the asset quality improved and the performance normalised. To that end, the current quarter performance is not comparable to that of previous year," Iyer said.
