Karur Vysya Bank reported Q1 FY26 net profit of Rs 521 crore, up 14% year-on-year and 2% quarter-on-quarter. Total business grew 15% YoY to Rs 1,96,024 crore, with deposits at Rs 1,06,650 crore and advances at Rs 89,374 crore, both up 15% YoY. Asset quality remained strong with GNPA improving to 0.66% (from 0.76% in March 2025) and NNPA at 0.19%, while provision coverage ratio stood at 96.76%. However, NIM contracted to 3.86% from 4.14% YoY (down 27 bps) and 3.86% from 4.05% QoQ, reflecting margin pressure. ROE moderated to 16.76% and CRAR was 17.36%. The bank maintained 888 branches and strong digital adoption, with 92% of transactions served digitally.
Positive earnings growth and strong asset quality support the investment case, but the sharp NIM compression of 27 bps YoY is a concern that could weigh on the stock in the near term. Investors should watch for margin stabilisation and the bank's strategy on liability pricing to defend NIMs going forward.
