Indian banks are expected to post another quarter of healthy business growth for the June quarter, supported by robust loan demand across retail and corporate segments.

However, higher funding costs, slower deposit growth and pressure on net interest margins (NIMs) are likely to limit earnings growth, while treasury income and provisions remain mixed across lenders.

The June quarter is expected to reflect two contrasting trends. Credit demand remained resilient despite seasonal weakness, driven by retail, gold loans, NBFC lending and selected corporate segments.

At the same time, competition for deposits and a larger share of high-cost term deposits continued to weigh on margins.
