Q1 FY26 Bandhan Bank result

reported a sharp 65% year-on-year decline in net profit to ₹372 crore for Q1 FY26, down from ₹1,063 crore in the same quarter last year, despite a slight increase in total income to ₹6,201.5 crore. The bank’s loan book grew 6.4% year-on-year to ₹1.336 lakh crore but contracted 2.5% sequentially, while total deposits rose 16.1% to ₹1.546 lakh crore. However, the CASA ratio declined to around 27% from 31% in the previous quarter, indicating a shift toward costlier term deposits, which may have impacted margins. The earnings drop likely stems from higher provisions or operating pressures, although specific details were not disclosed.
