India’s growth trajectory since fiscal 2023 has been revised higher, with fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2024 GDP growth now estimated at 7.6% year-on-year and 9.2% year-onyear respectively, led by stronger private consumption. Fiscal 2025 growth was 6.5% year-on-year. GDP for Q4-2025 rose 7.4% year-on-year, supported by growth in agriculture, industry, services and investment activity. Notably, private consumption improved in H2-2025. However, gross fixed capital formation was lower on a full year basis. Supportive monetary and fiscal policies, including tax cuts and RBI rate reductions, are likely to boost growth. Medium-term prospects remain positive, though global tariff uncertainty could weigh on exports.
Inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), softened from 4.2% in January 2025 to 3.6% in February 2025 and further to 3.3% in March 2025. For fiscal year 2025, average inflation has softened to 4.6% from 5.4% in previous fiscal year. Food inflation eased to 2.7%, while core inflation was slightly higher a 4.1%. RBI has revised the inflation estimates lower to 4.0% from 4.2% earlier.
Between April 2024 and August 2024, the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) maintained status-quo on the policy rate and stance, citing volatile inflation and an uncertain inflationary and geo-political outlook. With slower growth in fiscal 2025, along with expectations of easing inflationary pressures, the MPC changed the policy stance to ‘Neutral’ in the October 2024 policy meeting, while keeping status quo on the policy rate. In the next policy meeting (December), the MPC maintained status-quo on the policy rate and stance but cut the Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) rate by 50 basis points to 4%, to support liquidity conditions. After a pause of two years, the MPC began with an easing cycle by reducing the policy rate by 25 basis points to 6.25% in the February 2025 policy meeting, as the MPC was more confident on the inflation front, while acknowledging the required support to growth. Systemic liquidity improved significantly due in the later part of the year due to various liquidity measures by RBI.
During fiscal 2025, the Rupee depreciated by 2% from ₹ 83.40 per USD at March 29, 2024 to ₹ 85.46 per USD at March 31, 2025. The benchmark S&P BSE Sensex increased by 4.39% during fiscal 2025 compared to 0.7% in fiscal 2024. The yields on the benchmark 10-year government securities moved from 7.05% at March 31, 2024 to 6.58% at March 31, 2025 with a highest of 7.22% on April 19, 2024.
Non-food credit growth of the banking system stood at 11% year-on-year in March 2025 compared to 16.3% year-on-year in March 2024 (excluding merger impact). Sectoral break-up of credit data available till March 2025, shows that credit growth was led by services at 12.4% year-on-year and personal credit at 11.6% year-onyear. In addition, industry credit also showed an uptick in growth at 7.8% year-on-year.
Deposit growth also moderated this year, with deposit growth at 10.3% year-on-year for the fortnight ending March 21, 2025 compared to 12.9% year-on-year growth at March 2024 (excluding merger impact). Growth of demand deposits reduced to 10.2% in March 2025 compared to 12.1% at March 2024 (excluding merger impact).
According to RBI’s Financial Stability Report of December 2024, non-performing assets (NPAs) of scheduled commercial banks continued to decline, with gross NPA ratio at 2.6% and net NPA ratio at 0.6% at September 31, 2024 compared to a gross NPA ratio at 2.8% and net NPA ratio at 0.6% at March 31, 2024.
After no change in the policy rate for two years, the MPC has cut the policy rate by 25 basis points each in the February and April meeting, with the policy stance also changed to ‘Accommodative’, signaling the direction of policy rate in the future (lower or pause). The Indian economy continues to be supported by a series of structural reforms implemented over the past years and continuing policy measures. The authorities are taking various steps to maintain macroeconomic stability and support growth in the context of global headwinds and a volatile external environment. In this backdrop, the Bank will remain focused on its long-term strategy, aligned with India’s evolving economic landscape and growth potential, while being mindful of risks.

The yield on average interest-earning assets decreased by 2 basis points from 8.71% in fiscal 2024 to 8.69% in fiscal 2025 primarily due to the following factors:
The yield on average interest-earning assets decreased mainly due to decrease in yield on advances.
The yield on domestic advances decreased by 8 basis points from 9.93% in fiscal 2024 to 9.85% in fiscal 2025. The decrease in yield is primarily due to an incremental lending at lower yields. Of the total domestic loan book 52.6% has interest rate linked to repo rate, 31.6% has fixed interest rates, 14.9% has interest rate linked to MCLR and other older benchmarks and 0.9% has interest rate linked to other external benchmarks.
Reserve Bank of India decreased the repo rate by 50 basis points from 6.50% in February 2025 to 6.00% in April 2025. The future movement in the yield on advances will depend on the increase/decrease in the repo rate and the systemic interest rates.
The yield on overseas advances decreased by 64 basis points from 6.75% in fiscal 2024 to 6.11% in fiscal 2025 primarily due to reduction in benchmark SOFR rate. SOFR rate decreased from 5.34% in fiscal 2024 to 4.41% in fiscal 2025.
The yield on average interest-earning investments increased by 2 basis points from 7.18% in fiscal 2024 to 7.20% in fiscal 2025.
The yield on Indian government securities increased by 7 basis points from 7.16% in fiscal 2024 to 7.23% in fiscal 2025. This was primarily driven by change of book yield of certain securities reclassified from held-to-maturity (HTM) to available-for-sale (AFS) category under the new investment guidelines applicable from April 1, 2024. The reclassified securities were required to be reflected at market yield at April 1, 2024 as compared to historical book yield. Since the market yield on these securities was higher than the book yield, there was an increase in overall SLR yield.
The yield on non-SLR investments decreased by 32 basis points from 7.34% in fiscal 2024 to 7.02% in fiscal 2025. The yield on domestic non-SLR investments decreased by 49 basis points from 7.70% in fiscal 2024 to 7.21% in fiscal 2025 primarily due to a decrease in yield on pass through certificates and an increase in proportion of equity investment and certificates deposits which are lower yielding, offset, in part, by an increase in yield and proportion of bonds and debentures. The yield on overseas non-SLR investments increased by 8 basis points from 4.76% in fiscal 2024 to 4.84% in fiscal 2025 primarily due to an increase in yield on equity investment and bonds and debenture, offset, in part, by a decrease in proportion of bonds and debentures.
The yield on other interest-earning assets increased by 21 basis points from 2.90% in fiscal 2024 to 3.11% in fiscal 2025, primarily due to an increase in income on funding swaps, yield on term money lent and average balance with US Federal Reserve, offset, in part, by a decrease in average proportion of RIDF deposit and an increase in average balance with RBI which does not earn any interest.
Further, interest on income tax refund decreased from ₹ 2.65 billion in fiscal 2024 to ₹ 0.84 billion in fiscal 2025. During fiscal 2025, there was a receipt of interest on service tax refund of ₹ 1.00 billion. These receipts are neither consistent nor predictable and the amount and timing of such income depend on the nature and timing of determinations by tax authorities.
The cost of funds increased by 24 basis points from 4.86% in fiscal 2024 to 5.10% in fiscal 2025 primarily due to the following factors:
The cost of average deposits increased by 30 basis points from 4.61% in fiscal 2024 to 4.91% in fiscal 2025 primarily due to an increase in cost of domestic term deposits. The cost of domestic term deposits increased by 43 basis points from 6.22% in fiscal 2024 to 6.65% in fiscal 2025 primarily due to repricing of deposits at higher rates.
The average CASA deposits as a percentage of total deposit were 39.0% in fiscal 2025 as compared to 40.4% in fiscal 2024.
The cost of borrowings decreased by 16 basis points from 6.86% in fiscal 2024 to 6.70% in fiscal 2025. The cost of domestic borrowings decreased by 15 basis points from 6.94% in fiscal 2024 to 6.79% in fiscal 2025 primarily due to redemption of higher cost privately placed deep discount bonds and increase in proportion of bullion borrowings and call money borrowings, offset, in part, by an increase in average balance of interbank participatory certificate. The cost of overseas borrowings decreased by 52 basis points from 6.16% in fiscal 2024 to 5.64% in fiscal 2025 primarily due to a decrease in cost of term borrowings. Cost of term borrowings decreased primarily due to a reduction in the benchmark SOFR rate.
The Bank’s interest income, yield on advances, net interest income and net interest margin are impacted by systemic liquidity, the competitive environment, level of additions to non-performing loans, regulatory developments, monetary policy and economic and geopolitical factors. Interest rates on about 53.5% of Bank’s domestic loans are linked to external market benchmarks. The differential movements in the external benchmark rates compared to cost of funds of the Bank impact the Bank’s net interest income and net interest margin.

Average borrowings increased by 9.7% from ₹ 1,563.78 billion in fiscal 2024 to ₹ 1,715.00 billion in fiscal 2025 primarily due to an increase in inter-bank participatory certificates, bullion borrowings, call money borrowings and refinance borrowings, offset, in part, by a decrease in privately placed bonds.
Fee income primarily includes fees from retail customers such as loan processing fees, fees from cards business, account servicing charge, income from foreign exchange transactions and third party referral fees and commercial banking fees such as loan processing fees and transaction banking fees, income from foreign exchange transactions and margin on derivative transactions.

Operating expenses primarily include employee expenses, depreciation on assets and other administrative expenses. Operating expenses increased by 8.3% from ₹ 391.33 billion in fiscal 2024 to ₹ 423.72 billion in fiscal 2025.
Employee expenses increased by 9.2% from ₹ 151.42 billion in fiscal 2024 to ₹ 165.41 billion in fiscal 2025 primarily due to an increase in salary cost, provision for performance bonus and performance-linked retention pay, provision requirement for retirement benefit obligations and fair value accounting of employee stock options. Salary cost increased primarily due to impact of annual increment and promotions, offset, in part, by a decrease in average staff strength (number of employees at March 31, 2024: 141,009 and at March 31, 2025: 130,957).
The employee base includes sales executives, employees on fixed term contracts and interns.
Other administrative expenses primarily include rent, taxes and lighting, advertisements, sales promotion, repairs and maintenance, direct marketing expenses, depreciation, premium paid towards priority sector lending certificates and other expenditure. Other administrative expenses increased by 7.7% from ₹ 239.91 billion in fiscal 2024 to ₹ 258.31 billion in fiscal 2025 primarily due to an increase in technology related expenses, reward point expenses, premium paid towards Priority Sector Lending Certificates and advertisement and sales promotion expenses.
Gains from treasury-related activities includes income from sale of investments and changes in unrealised profit/ (loss) on account of revaluation of investments in the fixed income portfolio, equity and preference portfolio and units of venture funds and security receipts (SRs). Further, it includes income from foreign exchange transactions comprising various foreign exchange and derivative products, including options and swaps.
In September 2023, RBI issued new guidelines on “Classification, Valuation and Operation of Investment Portfolio of Commercial Banks (Directions), 2023”, which have become applicable from April 1, 2024. Due to implementation of RBI direction, there was a change in recognition and valuation of investment. Till March 31, 2024, the Bank had been following accounting policies for investments primarily based on the Master Direction - Classification, Valuation and Operation of Investment Portfolio of Commercial Banks (Directions), 2021 where securities were valued scrip-wise and classified into ‘Held to Maturity’ (HTM), ‘Available for Sale’ (AFS) and ‘Held for Trading’ (HFT). Depreciation/appreciation on securities was aggregated for each category. Net appreciation in each category under each investment classification, if any, being unrealised, was ignored, while net depreciation in each category was provided. HTM securities were carried at their acquisition cost or at amortized cost, if acquired at a premium over the face value. Any premium over the face value of fixed rate and floating rate securities acquired was amortized over the remaining period to maturity on a constant yield basis and straight line basis respectively. From April 1, 2024, all investments are classified as HTM, AFS or FVTPL, with HFT now as a subcategory under FVTPL. Investments classified under HTM are valued at amortized cost, while investments classified under AFS are carried at fair value through AFS reserves and investments classified under FVTPL are fair valued through profit and loss.
Gains from treasury-related activities increased from ₹ 0.09 billion in fiscal 2024 to ₹ 19.03 billion in fiscal 2025. Treasury income in fiscal 2024 includes transfer of accumulated translation loss of ₹ 3.40 billion related to closure of Bank’s Offshore Banking Unit, SEEPZ Mumbai, to profit and loss account.

Provision for non-performing and other assets was ₹ 9.45 billion in fiscal 2024 as compared to ₹ 40.15 billion in fiscal 2025. During fiscal 2025, there were higher net additions to non-performing loans primarily in retail and rural loans.

During fiscal 2025, the Bank made a provision of ₹ 16.05 billion on SRs received on conversion of loans (the Bank was already holding an equivalent provision against these loans), offset, in part, by write-back of provision of ₹ 3.91 billion on its investment in Alternate Investment Funds (AIFs), ₹ 2.39 billion on redemption of SRs and ₹ 0.39 billion on equity shares due to an increase in share price.
RBI, through its revised norms for Government Guaranteed Security Receipts (SRs) issued on March 29, 2025, has permitted banks to reverse any excess provision to the Profit and Loss Account in the year of transfer, if a loan is transferred to an ARC for a value higher than the net book value (NBV), and the sale consideration comprises only of cash and SRs guaranteed by the Government of India. The Bank, on a prudent basis, continues to hold provision against such SRs which will be reversed on actual receipt of recoveries or approval of claims, if any, by the government.
Provision for standard assets decreased from ₹ 11.55 billion in fiscal 2024 to ₹ 5.75 billion in fiscal 2025. During fiscal 2024, there was an increase in provision primarily due to an increase in domestic loans and upgrade of a stage 3 exposure in an overseas branch to stage 2. The cumulative general provision held at March 31, 2025 was ₹ 64.45 billion (March 31, 2024: ₹ 58.63 billion).

The Bank is an active market participant in the interest rate and foreign exchange derivative market for trading and market making purposes, which are carried out primarily for customer transactions and managing the proprietary position on interest rate and foreign exchange risk. The notional amount of interest rate swaps and currency options increased from ₹ 28,197.21 billion at March 31, 2024 to ₹ 39,694.11 billion at March 31, 2025 primarily due to an increase in market making activities and client flow.
The Bank enters into foreign exchange contracts in its normal course of business, to exchange currencies at a prefixed price at a future date. This item represents the notional principal amount of such contracts, which are derivative instruments. With respect to the transactions entered into with its customers, the Bank generally enters into off-setting transactions in the inter-bank market. This results in generation of a higher number of outstanding transactions, and hence a large value of gross notional principal of the portfolio, while the net market risk is lower. The notional principal amount of outstanding forward exchange contracts increased from ₹ 15,600.22 billion at March 31, 2024 to ₹ 17,294.92 billion at March 31, 2025 primarily due to increase in trading and market making activities in forwards to facilitate client flow and capture opportunities in the forward market.
The Bank records such foreign exchange contracts and derivatives transactions with either hedging/balance sheet management intent or with a trading intent. All the transactions done for trading purposes are fair valued and the hedging/balance sheet management transactions are accounted as per the RBI guidelines/Accounting Standards.
The Bank follows a policy of portfolio diversification and evaluates its total financing exposure to a particular industry in the light of its forecasts of growth and profitability for that industry. The Bank’s Credit Risk Management Group monitors all major sectors of the economy and specifically tracks industries in which the Bank has credit exposures. The Bank monitors developments in various sectors to assess potential risks in its portfolio and new business opportunities. The Bank’s policy is to limit its portfolio to any particular industry (other than retail loans) to 15.0% of its total exposure. In addition, the Bank has a framework for managing concentration risk with respect to single borrower and group exposures, based on the internal rating and track record of the borrowers. The exposure limits for lower rated borrowers and groups are substantially lower than the regulatory limits.
