Axis Bank reported Q1FY26 operating profit of ₹11,515 crores, up 14% year-on-year and 7% quarter-on-quarter, driven by 25% growth in non-interest income and controlled opex. Net profit declined 4% YoY to ₹5,806 crores, weighed down by ₹821 crores in 'Technical Impact' provisions related to one-time slippage recognition. Net Interest Margin stood at 3.80% (down from 3.97% in Q4FY25), with NII up just 1% YoY. Asset quality weakened with GNPA at 1.57% (+29 bps QoQ) and NNPA at 0.45% (+12 bps QoQ), again largely attributed to the technical impact. The bank remains well-capitalised with CAR at 16.85% and CET-1 at 14.68%, and continues to lead in UPI Payer PSP with ~32% market share.
Mixed quarter — strong fee income growth and operating profit gains were offset by a one-off technical provision hit and modest NIM compression. Investors may view the technical impact as transient, but the QoQ rise in NPAs and declining NIM warrant close monitoring in coming quarters.
