The bank’s LDR reduced by ~600 basis points from 111.5% in Q3FY24 to 105.4% in 4QFY24. Analysts at IIFL Securities expect the bank’s Net Interest Income (NII) to inch up by 1% sequentially and Total Income to grow 2% over the December 2023 quarter.
The Bank’s Net Interest Margin (NIM) could decline by 5 basis points sequentially due to the sharp decline in LDR. Pre-provisioning operating profit (PPOP) is expected to remain flat sequentially due to lower NII growth.
Profit After Tax (PAT) could decline 5% over the December 2023 quarter.
