Net profit of the bank stood at Rs 230 crore as against Rs 211 crore while net interest income, the difference between interest earned and interest expended, rose to Rs 545.6 crore from Rs 497.3 crore year-on-year.

Total expenses jumped 15.6 percent on yearly basis to Rs 1,540 crore in the quarter gone by. The profitability was boosted by improvement in asset quality and fall in provisions.
