I would now hand over the call to Mr. R. Vijay Anandh, MD and CEO of
Union Bank for his opening remarks. Over to you, sir.
R. Vijay Anandh: Thanks, Jignesh. Good evening, everyone. Hearty welcome to all of you
for this con call to discuss the unaudited financial results of City Union
Bank for 2Q-1HFY27. The Board approved the results today, and I hope
you all have received the copies of the results and the presentation.
Our bank has crossed the milestone of INR 150,000 crores in total
business during the current quarter. We had crossed the INR 120,000
crores in 2QFY26, coinciding with the celebration of our Bank's 120th
year in last year, and we had reached this figure in the span of four
quarters.
During last con call, we had shared with you our expectations for the
current financial year as below. We are very conscious with improving
our credit growth through secured lending while venturing into other
avenues to achieve the credit growth of 2%, 3% above the industry.

Our deposit growth is aligning with the credit growth, which is helping
us to maintain the desired CD ratios, expecting the NIM to hover around
3.7% to 3.75%. ROA is expected to remain at our current level of
1.55% plus. Our PAT growth will continue with business growth and
better asset quality.
For the current quarter, half yearly year ended, our performance is in
tune with our expectations. And probably in some parameters, we have
exceeded our expectations as well. We had registered 26% advance
growth in 2QFY27 year-on-year, and our advance have increased to
INR 72,442 crores from INR 57,561 crores in 2QFY26.
The positive momentum in growth achieved during the start of FY24,
'25 had geared up and we had achieved double-digit growth in all the
four quarters of FY25 and also up to 1HFY26. In this Q2 alone, our
advances have grown by over INR 4,800 crores which is over 7% in a
single quarter. We have achieved 25% credit growth for the last three
quarters consecutively.
Our core strength, MSME, has increased by INR 2,600 crores, that is,
from INR 40,262 crores to INR 42,862 crores. And the new segment,
secured retail loans, increased by INR 1,134 crores, that is, from INR
6,668 crores to INR 7,802 crores. The gold loan has also increased by
INR 1,062 crores during the quarter, from INR 20,715 crores to INR
21,777 crores.
We have been coming across various news reports regarding the gold
loans and various practices adopted. Hence, we would like to spend 2,
3 minutes on this to cover elaborately on such practices adopted by our
bank, particularly on delinquency and LTV norms. Jewel loans are
secured lending products, which is serving both agri and non-agri
financing needs.
Agri loan, which is income generation classification requires appropriate
evidence of eligible underlying activity, while non-agricultural lending is
completely a consumption purpose, which requires suitable purpose of
end use. Bank prioritizes to maintain clear agri and non-agri based on
Page 3 of 24

the purpose of the loan, documents evidencing the proof, proper credit
assessments and the end-use control. This is aligned with RBI's revised
lending against gold and silver collateral directions effective 1st April
2026.
In terms of LTV, under the RBI's harmonized directions applicable to
banks from April 1, 2026. The earlier uniform 75% LTV cap has been
replaced with a structure based on the loan amount and consumption
loans. That is loan amount up to INR 2.5 lakhs, we can go up to 85%
LTV, INR 2.5 lakhs to INR 5 lakhs, 80% LTV, above INR 5 lakhs is
75% LTV. Please note, these are only maximum regulatory limits for
consumption loans under the harmonized directions and not
recommended lending targets.
Generally, consumption loans are considered with the LTV range of
60% to 65% at the time of on-boarding, though the permitted LTV is
on the higher side and the daily LTV will be calculated on the last 30
days average gold rate of India Bullion and Jewellers Association.
While calculating the LTV on a day-to-day basis, the entire interest
payable over the loan tenure up to the maturity to be considered
upfront, along with the outstanding value of the account. So prior to
the new regulatory guidelines, which is applicable from 1st April, the
consumption loan will be classified as an NPA if the account reaches the
threshold limit of 75%.
However, as per the current regulation, when the LTV has breached the
regulatory requirement, the bank has introduced the SMA flagging of
accounts and the event of the breach of the prescribed LTV, the account
will be classified as an NPA on 91st day. Generally, we keep 5% cushion
for the margin call. That is 70% for the customers exposure above INR
5 lakhs for the maturity balance -- above 5 lakhs, 75% for the maturity
balance from INR 2.5 lakhs to INR 5 lakhs and 80% for INR 2.5 lakhs.
As discussed, whenever the LTV has crossed, the entire list of accounts
will be coming under the exceptional item of the client balance of the
branches concerned for necessary follow-up. The customer is contacted

for margin calls, notices are sent for interest payment and for loan
closures. If
