Quarterly Result Highlights
ICICI Bank (ICICI) reported a good set of numbers total revenue grew 20% YoY to INR19,842cr, aided by better-than-expected other income and significant expansion in NIM. NIM increased 31bps YoY and 30bps QoQ to 4.31%. Opex increased a 24% YoY, resulting in PPoP growth of 18% YoY to INR11,680cr. Core operating profit (excluding treasury income) was up 24% YoY. Credit cost came in at 70bps, PAT was up 37% YoY to INR7,558cr.

Improved asset quality as a result of slippage reduction

Retail, rural and business banking accounted for 84% of the slippages despite constituting 69% of the overall portfolio mix. management has guided that credit cost will remain below the normal levels for the next few quarters. The impact of slippages on asset quality was offset by recoveries and upgrades of INR3,761cr and write-offs/sales to the extent of INR1,197cr.
