On the reaction day the stock moved 2.3 pts more than Nifty Microcap 250 and 1.8 pts more than its Other Bank peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Unaudited Q2 FY26 total income rose 16% year on year to Rs 1,552.25 crore, but net profit fell 22% to Rs 74.99 crore. Half-year net profit was Rs 176.92 crore, down 34%. Gross and net bad-loan ratios improved to 2.87% and 0.94%, while capital adequacy was 19.72%. A change in priority-sector certificate accounting makes prior-period figures not comparable.
Lower profit may pressure shares, though better asset quality and 19.72% capital adequacy offer support. Accounting changes limit yearly comparisons.
