Our financials universe net profit was up by strong 22% yoy, in line with our estimates• Growth stronger for private banks – 35% yoy and 18% qoq rise• Public banks growth lower at 18% yoy and 12% qoq due to higher provisioning expenses & lower opex

Strong NII performance

NII growth at 36% yoy and 9% qoq for our coverage universe was marginally ahead of estimates.Strong performance was led by • Uptick in credit growth… : Up ~6% qoq in Q3FY11, broad based growth across sectors • …as margins expand qoq: Uptick qoq for almost all banks except wholesale funded banks and few NBFCS),

as rise in lending rates mitigate impact of higher funding costs

Muted other income

Sluggish growth at 3% yoy and 1% qoq decline • Low treasury income due to elevated G-Sec yields• Subdued fee and commissions income for PSU banks due to low transaction and banking fees• Forex income witnesses traction for select banks

Provision expenses and asset quality – divergent trends

• NBFCs makes higher provisioning expenses impacted by chances in recent RBI norms• Private banks maintain resilient asset quality; provision expenses decline by 16% qoq• Slippages for PSU banks persist at elevated levels

Operating expenses • Higher than estimates as PSU banks make higher provisions for second pension options

Robust operating performance, but delinquencies persist
