However, net NPAs rose marginally to 4.59 per cent of the net loans from 4.29 per cent in the corresponding period a year ago.
The NPA coverage ratio, though static on a year-on-year basis and still comparable with the best in the industry, has seen a dip on sequential basis to 65.82 per cent mainly on account of downgrade of IL&FS which reflects that the bank has been able to tide over the IL&FS shock without any major deterioration in the balance sheet parameters, it said.
From now onwards, the bank will focus on the transformation exercise by aggressively implementing the business plan 2022 prepared in consultation with management consultants and expects to clock a profit of ₹ 2,000 crore by end of 2022.
