Private sector lender Kotak Mahindra Bank on October 26 reported a 7 percent year-on-year decline in standalone profit at Rs 2,032 crore for the September 2021 quarter due to higher provisions. But supported by higher other income, the profit was ahead of analysts’ estimates. However, net income sequentially grew by 24 percent on sharp decline in bad loan provisions.

Standalone net interest income in Q2FY22 rose 3.2 percent year-on-year to Rs 4,020.6 crore – meeting street expectations – with healthy 15 percent YoY (8 percent QoQ) loan growth. Net interest margin contracted 5 bps year-on-year and 15 bps sequentially to 4.45 percent in Q2.

“Advances during the quarter increased by 14.7 percent to Rs 2,34,965 crore, and deposits grew by 11.5 percent to Rs 2,91,711 crore compared to year-ago period,” said the bank in its BSE filing on Tuesday.

Profit was estimated at Rs 1,792.2 crore and net interest income was expected at Rs 4,008.1 crore for the quarter, according to average of estimates of analysts polled by CNBC-TV18.

Asset quality improved during the quarter ended September 2021 with gross non-performing assets as a percentage of gross advances falling 40 bps QoQ to 3.2 percent and the net NPA declined 20 bps to 1.1 percent on sequential basis. 10 basis points is 0.01 percent.

Provisions and contingencies declined sharply by 40 percent sequentially to Rs 424 crore in September 2021 quarter, but the same increased by 27.3 percent year-on-year which resulted into a drag in profitability.

Kotak Mahindra Bank said Covid related provisions as of September 2021 were maintained at Rs 1,279 crore and did not utilise in the first half of FY22. “The bank has implemented total restructuring of Rs 495 crore (0.21 percent of advances), and in addition, the bank has implemented total restructuring of Rs 767 crore (0.33 percent of advances) as on September 30, 2021.”

“Total provisions (including specific, standard, COVID-19 related etc.) held as on September 2021 at Rs 7,637 crore, around 100 percent of gross NPA,” the bank said.

The bank further said SMA-II (special mention account) outstanding at the end of September 2021 quarter was at Rs 388 crore, down compared to Rs 430 crore as of June quarter.
