1. Question by Ms. Mahrukh:
"Given that our margins are lower than peers, what steps will you take to align them? Is there a comfort level for margins below which you won't operate?"
Answer:
Our NIM contracted by 2 basis points due to a recent repo rate cut. We see a strong drive in RAM credit, with an 18.70% growth in this sector. If repo rates keep lowering, we still expect our NIM to stabilize between 2.45% and 2.50% as our CASA deposits, which grew 9.32%, improve.
2. Question by Ms. Mahrukh:
"What is the projected long-term impact of ECL on our credit costs under the new standards?"
Answer:
ECL will be implemented in April 2027, requiring about Rs.10,000 crores in provisions, expected to be amortized over four years. This translates to a potential quarterly impact of Rs.2,000 to Rs.2,500 crores. Given our strong profits, we can absorb this impact easily.
3. Question by Mr. Anand Dama:
"Why were PSLC fees lower this quarter? Is there a reason beyond seasonality?"
Answer:
We traditionally generate PSLC revenue mainly in the first quarter. We earned Rs.1,240 crores in Q2 and just Rs.140 crores in Q3 due to limited opportunities. We expect substantial earnings in Q4 as we offload excess PSLCs.
4. Question by Mr. Ashok Ajmera:
"Will you revise your credit growth targets given that you're already at 11%?"
Answer:
We initially expected 10% to 11% credit growth, but our current trajectory of 13.59% is promising. We intend to maintain this level and possibly exceed our initial targets.
5. Question by Mr. Jai Mundra:
"Can you provide a breakdown of SMA accounts and changes in provisioning?"
Answer:
SMA has decreased from Rs.43,000 crores to Rs.35,604 crores. SMA-1 is at Rs.10,593 crores, and SMA-2 is at Rs.15,454 crores. We have made additional provisions of Rs.1,946 crores in three accounts, ensuring we're prepared for any slippages.
6. Question by Mr. Chetan Wadia:
"What are your top growth areas for advances and expected yields?"
Answer:
Top growth areas include the RAM sector at an 18.70% growth with yields of 8.88%. MSME is growing at 13.74% with 9.28% yields, and gold loans at 30% with a yield around 9%. We're optimistic about our growth potential in these sectors.
7. Question by Mr. Gaurav Jani:
"How do you plan to address the disparity in deposit growth compared to loan growth?"
Answer:
Deposit growth stands at 12.95%, also higher than our guidance of 9% to 10%. We will continue to focus on CASA, as our savings accounts are showing solid growth, improving our deposit base to support our lending strategy.
8. Question by Mr. Ankit:
"Are you implementing any ECL provisions currently, or planning to wait?"
Answer:
We don't plan preemptive provisions before ECL rolls out. Current profits will suffice to absorb future ECL requirements while maintaining our capital adequacy without hindering growth.
