Sharekhan's research report on IndusInd Bank

IndusInd Bank reported robust performance in terms of operating profit, advances growth and improvement in asset quality. The bank reported a consolidated PAT of Rs. 1,242 crores, beating street expectations which increased by 50% y-o-y, driven by lower provisions. Asset quality improved with GNPA and NNPA ratios declining by 29 bps q-o-q and 9 bps q-o-q to 2.48% to 0.71%, respectively. Further, we believe that with the management addressing concerns on its microfinance book and providing fully for the exposures, the bank is on a speedy growth trajectory, given the revival in the demand for CVs and microfinance loans. . The stock currently trades at a reasonable valuation of 1.3x/ 1.2x of its FY23E and FY24E book value.
