What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

BNP Paribas believes large private lenders are approaching a critical turning point. The brokerage noted that while deposit rates have eased through September, lending yields appear to be flattening, which could help Net Interest Margins (NIMs) stabilize or expand modestly from the second half of FY27. BNP Paribas expects system-wide credit growth of 13% in FY27.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

For banks, earnings growth may not rely solely on loan growth if deposit costs continue to rise. Recent results showed ICICI Bank's margin declined 12 basis points to 4.18% in Q2 FY27, and HDFC Bank's margin fell 10 basis points sequentially to 3.16%, highlighting the tension between profit growth and margin pressure.
