Indian Bank posted a stellar set of first quarter numbers. Net interest income (NII) growth was the best for the company in recent times and asset quality continues to improve.

There will be no major pains with respect to slippages, says Jain. Out of the Rs 825 crore fresh slippages in Q1 of current fiscal, Rs 93 crore was an addition due to existing non-performing assets (NPA). Also there was a Rs 758 crore recovery and upgradation.
The bank will focus on the retail segment and expects 11-12 percent loan growth in FY16, Mahesh Kumar Jain, MD & CEO of Indian Bank said.
