Axis Bank reported a surge in pre-tax profit for the quarter ended 30 June 2026, as a sharp decline in provisions more than offset a slight rise in non-performing assets. Revenue continued to grow, led by interest income, while the balance sheet expanded further. A dramatic fall in the Additional Tier 1 capital ratio was a notable development in the capital structure.
Total income rose 5.03% quarter-on-quarter to ₹43,212.82 crore. Interest earned, the largest component, increased 4.01% from the previous quarter to ₹35,541.96 crore and was 9.87% higher than the same quarter last year. Other income recovered from the prior quarter, rising 10.03% to ₹7,670.86 crore, though it remained 4.74% below the year-ago level. Revenue on investments was broadly flat sequentially at ₹6,732.38 crore.
Operating profit before provisions and contingencies grew 15.52% quarter-on-quarter to ₹12,498.75 crore. A sharp 34.56% drop in provisions other than tax and contingencies—to ₹2,337.47 crore from ₹3,572.07 crore in the previous quarter—allowed pre‑tax profit to climb 40.21% sequentially to ₹10,161.28 crore. Compared with the same quarter last year, pre‑tax profit was 24.23% higher.
Gross non-performing assets (GNPA) increased 6.47% from the previous quarter to ₹17,124.33 crore, while net NPA rose 8.41% to ₹5,192.56 crore. The gross NPA ratio inched up to 1.28% from 1.23% sequentially, and the net NPA ratio moved to 0.39% from 0.37%.
Year-on-year, the picture was mixed. GNPA was 3.6% lower than a year ago. Net NPA, however, was 2.5% higher than in the same quarter last year, although the net NPA ratio improved from 0.45% to 0.39% over that period. The decline in provisioning costs occurred alongside these asset-quality movements.
The Additional Tier 1 (AT1) capital ratio fell sharply from 14.83% in the previous quarter to 0.66%, a substantial shift in the capital structure. In contrast, the Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio edged up to 14.7% from 14.45%.
The balance sheet continued to expand. Net segment assets grew 2.05% quarter-on-quarter to ₹19,85,995.55 crore, and net segment liabilities increased 1.84% to ₹17,64,392.55 crore. Over the past year, net segment assets rose 20.11%.
The bank delivered a sharp rise in profit, mainly because it set aside far less for potential loan losses than in the previous quarter, even as both gross and net non‑performing assets ticked up sequentially. Revenue grew steadily, the balance sheet expanded, and a steep drop in the AT1 capital ratio was a notable change in the quarter.

While things are changing, insurance is still seen as a bit of a savings and tax product. We are focusing on making protection and annuity more relevant across proprietary and partnership channels, where we are looking at growth of 15% or 16%. The discussion is around protection rather than just premium. We've started focusing very sharply on the young Indian middle clas, says Sumit Madan.
