Karur Vysya Bank reported its first quarter of FY2026-27 results, marked by a sharp rise in interest income but a sequential drop in operating profit as other income fell and employee costs increased. A substantial reduction in provisions lifted net profit and earnings per share above the prior quarter. Absolute gross non-performing assets edged higher while the gross NPA ratio remained nearly flat, and the core capital ratio eased but stayed above the prior-year level.
Total revenue (interest earned plus other income) reached ₹3,491.21 crore. Interest earned climbed to ₹3,049.42 crore, up 18.72% year-on-year and 5.02% from the preceding quarter. Within that total, interest on advances or bills contributed ₹2,516.24 crore, while revenue on investments grew 22.31% year-on-year and 1.84% sequentially to ₹510.65 crore.
Other income declined sharply. At ₹441.79 crore, it was 28.26% lower than the ₹615.80 crore recorded in the March quarter and 1.22% below the ₹447.25 crore from a year earlier.
Interest expense rose to ₹1,626.67 crore, a 9.23% year-on-year increase and a 5.29% sequential rise. Consequently, net interest income (interest earned minus interest expense) stood at ₹1,422.75 crore, up from ₹1,358.77 crore in the prior quarter and ₹1,079.35 crore a year ago.
Operating expenses increased to ₹768.94 crore, up 6.63% year-on-year and 5.65% sequentially. Employee costs were the primary driver, rising 17.17% sequentially to ₹399.27 crore (a 9.41% year-on-year gain).
After adding other income and deducting operating expenses, operating profit before provisions and contingencies came to ₹1,095.60 crore. That was 36.01% higher than ₹805.50 crore a year earlier, but 12.12% below the ₹1,246.76 crore posted in the March quarter. The sequential decline was driven by the sharp drop in other income and the jump in employee costs, which together more than offset the growth in net interest income.
Provisions other than tax and contingencies dropped sharply to ₹90.29 crore from ₹257.66 crore in the previous quarter, a decline of nearly 65%. As a result, profit before tax rose to ₹1,005.31 crore, slightly above ₹989.10 crore in the March quarter and well above ₹687.36 crore a year ago.
Tax expense was ₹249.61 crore, compared with ₹264.14 crore in the prior quarter and ₹165.91 crore a year earlier. After tax, net profit totalled ₹755.70 crore, up 4.24% sequentially and 44.93% year-on-year. Net profit margin, calculated as net profit divided by total revenue, stood at 21.65%. Basic earnings per share was ₹7.82, 4.27% higher than ₹7.50 in the prior quarter and 20.68% above ₹6.48 a year ago.
Gross non-performing assets ended the quarter at ₹771.89 crore, a 3.76% increase from ₹743.91 crore at the end of March and a 30.25% increase from ₹592.60 crore a year earlier. The gross NPA ratio, however, was little changed at 0.74% (0.0074), compared with 0.75% (0.0075) in the previous quarter, indicating that the growth in advances roughly matched the rise in absolute non-performing assets.
The Common Equity Tier-1 (CET1) ratio was 17.98% as of 30 June 2026. This marked a decline from 18.76% at the end of March but was above the 16.13% reported a year earlier.
Karur Vysya Bank reported growth in interest income and net profit during the first quarter of FY2026-27. Operating profit declined sequentially as a sharp drop in other income and a jump in employee costs outweighed the growth in net interest income. A substantial reduction in provisions supported the rise in net profit and earnings per share. Absolute non-performing assets increased, but the NPA ratio remained stable, and the core capital ratio eased slightly while staying above the prior-year level.
