The interest income was down by 5.6 per cent at Rs 4,063 crore during the quarter. The non-interest income rose by 17.2 per cent at Rs 1,092 crore due to increase in other income, the bank said.

The Chennai-headquartered lender said it reduced non-performing assets (NAPs) worth Rs 1,616 crore during the quarter, as against Rs 1,969 crore in June 2020 quarter.

Bank’s gross NPAs (bad loans) fell to 11.48 per cent of the gross advances as of June 30, 2021, against 13.90 per cent in the year-ago period.

In terms of value, the gross NPAs were worth Rs 15,952 crore, down from Rs 18,291 crore. Net NPAs fell to 3.15 per cent (Rs 3,998 crore) from 5.10 per cent (Rs 6,081 crore).

Provisions for bad loans and contingencies for the quarter fell to Rs 868 crore from Rs 969.52 crore a year ago.

“The bank plans to come out of prompt corrective action (PCA) by focussing on recovery, low-cost deposits and less capital consuming advances,” it said.

The provision coverage ratio recorded at 91.56 per cent, it added.

Shares of the bank traded 2.7 per cent down at Rs 23.40 apiece on BSE. PTI KPM MR MR
