One of the highlights in the quarter was the sharp decrease in provisions. Provisions fell by 89.20% year-on-year to ₹96.16 crore compared to ₹890.70 crore. The drop in provisions on a sequential basis was even sharper at 96.24% to ₹2,554.28 crore from Q3 FY26.

Meanwhile, net NPA was recorded at 0.33%, down from 0.39% last year and 0.37% last quarter.
An extra standard asset provision of ₹1,283 crore was made by the bank after a review by the RBI. This provision pertains to a set of loans given to the agriculture priority sector that do not completely adhere to the regulatory requirements.
It must be noted here that there has been no change in the asset classification, the borrower’s behavior, or the terms of the loan. It is simply a regulatory provision that will stay on the books till the loans become norm-compliant.
