Indian Overseas Bank reported exceptional Q4 FY2026 results with net profit up 56.16% to Rs 5,208 crore and operating profit at an all-time high of Rs 10,026 crore. Business grew 20.76% to Rs 6.79 lakh crore, with advances up 24.16% and deposits up 18.03%. Asset quality improved significantly with GNPA down 72 bps to 1.42% and NNPA at just 0.21%, while provision coverage ratio stands at 97.50%. The bank has created an ECL buffer of Rs 1,750 crore ahead of RBI's new ECL guidelines and expects total impact of Rs 3,000 crore. Management guided that NIM will be maintained in the 3.30-3.35% range and expects RAM (Retail, Agri, MSME) segment to remain the priority growth area. Treasury operations are expected to remain muted for the next two quarters due to market uncertainty. The bank sees Rs 8,000-10,000 crore opportunity from ECLGS 5.0 scheme and targets 14-15% overall growth for the next three years.
Strong all-round performance with 56% profit growth and improving asset quality should be positive for the stock. The bank's focus on high-quality RAM lending with 97.5% PCR provides comfort, though investors should note the heavy government ownership (92.44%) limiting retail float.
