Total business crossed Rs. 1.92 lakh crore. Deposits grew 3.79% to Rs. 1,08,778.75 crore while gross advances rose 6.90% to Rs. 83,339.92 crore. Asset quality improved significantly with GNPA declining 54 bps to 2.78% and NNPA falling 33 bps to 0.98%. The board proposed a 50% dividend. Net Interest Income declined 5.79% YoY though NIMs improved 15 bps QoQ to 3.07% in Q4.
