Core operating profit trajectory at Rs 10 billion (up 18% QoQ/64% YoY) gives confidence of targeted return on asset/return on equity, after having delivered RoA of 0.97%/RoE of 9% in Q1 FY23.
Containment of credit cost at 90 basis points and retail asset growth of 10% QoQ/30% YoY were encouraging. This was offset by higher opex, net interest margin trajectory at 5.9%, and mark-to-market loss of Rs 440 million.
Overall slippages were elevated at 3.5% due to slippage of one legacy retail chain account. Recoveries and aggressive write-offs reduced grsoo non-performing assets QoQ by 33 bps to 3.36%.
