Net Interest Income (NII) for Q2FY25 has surged to INR 70,196 Mn, a growth of 11.5% YoY (+2.6% QoQ). This NII figure is 1.3% lower than our estimates. Pre-Provision Operating Profit (PPOP) was INR 50,993 Mn, a growth of 10.6% YoY (-2.9% QoQ). The bank's adjusted PAT stood at INR 33,437 Mn, a growth of 4.8% YoY (-5.0% QoQ), in line with our estimates. The bank's focus on expanding granular deposits, its strategic acquisitions, and its emphasis on digital innovation are key to driving sustainable growth. With a strong balance sheet and continued investment in technology, the bank is well-positioned to capitalize on organic and inorganic growth opportunities once the RBI tech restrictions are lifted.

Considering slightly higher credit costs, we have cut our EPS for FY25E/ FY26E by 3.7%/ 3.3%. We revise our target price to INR 2,025 per share, maintaining our rating of "ACCUMULATE" on the shares.
