United Bank of India has turned profitable during October-December quarter due to sharp slide in provisions and jump in other income. However, the net was impacted by lower net interest income.

Other income (non-interest income) shot up 92.5 percent to Rs 426 crore and operating profit climbed 10.6 percent to Rs 602.8 crore on yearly basis.

Provisions for bad loans dropped 72 percent year-on-year (up 47.8 percent sequentially) to Rs 520.4 crore with provision coverage ratio at 52.48 percent in December quarter.

Capital adequacy ratio (as per Basel III norms) of the public sector lender stood at 10.4 percent in Q3FY15 against 10.48 percent in previous quarter and 9.01 percent in the year-ago period.

Asset quality worsened in the quarter ended December 2014. Gross non-performing assets (NPA) climbed 121 basis points year-on-year (up 125 bps sequentially) to 12.03 percent and net NPA jumped 106 bps Y-o-Y (up 131 bps Q-o-Q) to 8.50 percent in the quarter gone by.
