INVESTOR BRIEF FOR JUNE 2026
Good Afternoon and a warm welcome to all the investors, analysts and other stakeholders

And our Treasury Head – Mr. Ajay Kohli
The first quarter of this new financial year unfolded against a backdrop of elevated global
uncertainty with the global economy navigating through a turbulent phase. While the
global economy was continuing to grapple with heightened uncertainties emanating from
fragile geopolitics and supply chain pressures, tensions have intensified towards the close
of the quarter and in the weeks thereafter due to the breakdown of diplomatic efforts to
de-escalate tensions the Middle East. The International Monetary Fund (IMF), in its July
2026 World Economic Outlook Update, has revised down its global growth forecast for 2026
by 10 bps compared to its earlier April projections, while also trimming India’s GDP growth
forecast for FY 2026-27 by 10 bps to 6.4%, reflecting the adverse impact of the geopolitical
tensions.
Notwithstanding the uncertain external economic environment and the fact that
traditionally, the first quarter is considered to be a seasonally softer period for the banking
industry, the Bank has delivered a healthy growth across both deposits and advances,
outpacing the system growth, with a YoY growth of 16.75% and 25.44% in Deposits and
Advances respectively. Even on a sequential basis, the Bank has registered a healthy
growth of over 4% in deposits as well as advances. This marks the first time in last 6 years
that the Bank has been able to post a sequential deposit growth in the first quarter. During
this quarter, the Bank also crossed the Rs.3 trillion business figure, marking a defining
milestone in its 88-year journey. While it took the Bank a decade to reach a business of
Rs. 2 trillion from Rs.1 trillion, the journey from Rs.2 trillion to Rs.3 trillion has been
completed in just over 3 years’ time reaffirming the Bank’s successful transformation over
the past few years.
As part of efforts for diversification of the business portfolio, the Bank continues to make
progress towards its objective of enhancing the share of business from Rest of India
Division, with ROI Division now contributing around 26% of the business as on 30th June
2026 compared to less than 20% a year ago. This is a reflection of a steady execution of
our calibrated expansion strategy beyond our core geography and is helping create a more

balanced and diversified balance sheet. We would also like to emphasize on the fact that
this diversification has been achieved without compromising on our market leadership in
our home territories of J&K and Ladakh. The Bank continues to maintain its dominant
position in J&K and Ladakh with a commanding market share of 61.13% of banking business
as on 31st March 2026 and has recorded an improvement in the deposit market share in 19
out of the 22 districts in J&K and Ladakh during FY 2025-26. Both these combined, position
the Bank for a diversified and sustainable long-term growth.
During the first quarter, Corporate Credit growth has outpaced the growth in Retail Credit
which has been the broad industry trend, as higher bond yields have pushed companies
back to the banking system. Also, in our case, this is partly on account of a tactical
response to the prevailing market opportunities and economic conditions, wherein we
exhibited a conscious preference for selective lending to well-rated corporates with sound
fundamentals. However, that said, the strategic positioning of the Bank as a retail-focused
bank remains unchanged with Retail, Agriculture and MSME Loans (RAM) constituting
around two-thirds of our Loan Book.
The Bank’s Retail Advances have also registered a double-digit YoY growth. Within RAM,
Bank has registered a YoY growth of around 18% in Agricultural Advances. Our Personal
Loan segment in ROI also continues to grow at a decent rate, recording a YoY growth of
over 12%. Amongst Personal Loans, Car Loans has been the best performing segment across
all divisions with a YoY growth of over 20% at the Bank level and over 30% in the ROI
Division. Housing and Education loans in ROI Division have also recorded a double-digit YoY
growth.
On the liability side, our deposit franchise has remained resilient despite an intensely
competitive environment with both JKL and ROI Divisions recording a double-digit YoY
growth. The growth in Term Deposits has outpaced the growth in CASA Deposits, growing
by over 24% YoY with CASA Deposits growing by around 7.5%. This is an industry-wide
phenomenon driven by the evolving customer preferences for relatively higher-yielding
deposit products and increasing financialization of savings, which is substantiated from the
increase in share of Term Deposits in the Total Deposits, across all Scheduled Commercial
Banks, from 58% in Fiscal 2019 to 61% in Fiscal 2026 and from increase in share of equities
and mutual funds in savings in financial assets from 27% in FY 2019-20 to 46% in FY 2024-
25. The Bank has recorded a CASA Ratio of 42.06% on 30th June 2026, as CASA Deposits
have declined sequentially. However, this decline in CASA deposits during the first quarter
needs to be viewed as a trend witnessed in the Bank over a decade barring in the June
2020 quarter, a period impacted by the Covid 19 pandemic.
Now, turning to our financial performance, the Bank has recorded an operating profit of
Rs.703 crores for the quarter, registering a 5%
