Profitability Boosted by Lending Growth and Lower NPAs

The Bank’s Net Interest Income (NII) — a key measure of core lending operations — grew 17.60% YoY to ₹3,292 crore, supported by an expansion in loan book and better interest margin management. The bank’s Operating Profit rose to ₹2,570 crore, up from ₹2,294 crore a year ago.
