The Bank’s operating profit rose 20% (YoY) at Rs.329 crore and net profit too showed a healthy 24% rise at Rs.53 crore. Total operating costs were down 6% and cost of deposit reduced from 7.79% to 7.06%. Net Interest Income (NII) rose 8.5% to Rs.561 crore while Net Interest Margins (NIM) improved from 2.10% to 2.25%.

On the asset quality front, Gross NPA (QoQ) rose from 6.48% to 7.23% and Net NPA rose from 4.62% to 5%.  And despite this fall in asset quality, provisions for NPAs, sequentially, fell 41% to Rs.207 crore.
