Motilal Oswal 's research report on RBL Bank
RBK reported weak business trends, weighed by decline in wholesale assets and deposit outflows. Higher provisions impacted earnings, but slippages moderated on a sequential basis, enabling improvement in the coverage ratio. Asset quality is expected to remain under watch as 33% of the loan book availed moratorium, with management guiding for elevated credit costs in credit cards/MFI/MSME portfolio. We cut our PAT estimate for FY21/FY22 by 6%/5%, primarily as we factor in moderation in fee income, led by reduced economic activity / lockdown. Maintain Buy.
Outlook
This may pose a risk as the business environment remains weak, thus prolonging the slippage trend in the Wholesale portfolio. We revise our TP to INR180 (0.9x FY22E ABV). Maintain Buy.
