Private sector lender RBL Bank' third quarter profit is expected to rise 38.3 percent to Rs 178 crore compared to Rs 128.7 crore in year-ago.
Net interest income, the difference between interest earned and interest expended, may grow 43.6 percent year-on-year to Rs 461.8 crore for quarter ended December 2017, according to average of estimates of analysts polled by CNBC-TV18.
The stock gained 0.65 percent during the quarter but rallied 52 percent in 2017, outperforming Nifty Bank that surged over 40 percent in last year.
Key things to watch out:
If loan growth comes above 35 percent (35 percent in Q2), net interest margin above 3.4 percent (3.74 percent) and gross non-performing assets below 1.6 percent (1.44 percent) then that will be considered positive by the Street.
