Today from the management side, we have with us:
o Mr. Rajendra Kumar Saboo – Managing Director & CEO (I/C) and
Executive Director
o Mr. Vijay N Kamble - Executive Director
− With this I hand over the call to MD sir for his opening remarks, post which we
will have a Q&A session. Thank you and over to you, sir.
− Mr. Rajendra Kumar Saboo - MD & CEO (I/C) and ED, UCO Bank:
− Thank you for arranging this call with all our esteemed analysts and investors.
Good afternoon to all of you.
− So you all know that we have announced our quarterly financial results for the
quarter ended 30th June 2026. We have already uploaded our presentation,
detailed results, with key highlights. I will just summarize the key performance
highlights for the quarter for ready reference of all of you.
− So, business growth of the bank has been very well and quite diversified also. So,
as we know, the total business of the bank has reached 6,05,000 crores on 30th
June. This growth comes to 15.53% year-on-year growth in June, supported by
Advances growth of 21.18% and Deposit growth of 11.28%. So thereby our total
Advances, global Advances have reached to 272,768 crores and Deposits have
reached 3,32,315 crores.
− Deposit growth has been supported by CASA growth where our growth year-
on-year has been 12.34%. Our total CASA stood at 1,16,136 crores. This is with
the support of Current Deposit growth of 16.23% and Savings Deposit growth of
11.78%. Our CASA ratio as on 30th June has been at 36.94%. Our Advances
growth has been contributed by all the sectors. RAM growth has been 25.27%,
and within the RAM, retail growth has been 27.32%. Our Agriculture Advances
have grown by 30% and our MSME Advances have grown by 18.79% year-on-
year. So this is the growth in the business, Advances in Deposit.
− With the support of this growth in business, our profitability has also improved.
So our Operating Profit has grown by 79.8% to Rs. 2,810 crores in this quarter.
This Operating Profit growth has been supported by core income growth where
our NII income has grown by 16.85%. Then our fee-based income has also grown
35%, and then there is a recovery from TWO accounts that is about Rs. 1,018
crores; that has also supported us in our Operating Profit growth.

− While the Operating Profit growth has been good, our Net Profit growth has
been 8% year-on-year to Rs. 656 crores. So there is in between provision, and our
taxation provision have increased, so we have provided for tax Rs. 1,919 crores.
So that is the maximum provision provided. Out of this Rs. 1,919 crores, there is
a one-time DTA charge. So basically, earlier in the old tax regime, we were
calculating DTA at the rate of around 35%. Now in this financial year, we have
moved to the new tax regime where the tax rate is at around 25%. So now with
this change, the DTA has been recalculated, remeasured, and due to this
remeasurement, Rs. 1,237 crores one-time DTA charge has been provided in the
profit & loss account. So thereby, our regular DTA means…regular tax provision
is around Rs. 625 crores or so, and addition this Rs. 1,237 crores, total tax
provision has been Rs. 1,919 crores. Had it not been there, our Net Profit could
have been more. So that is the reason why the Net Profit is at Rs. 656 crores.
− Then with this profitability, our asset quality has also improved. So we have seen
reduction in Gross NPA by 55 basis points year-on-year. So our GNPA as on date
is 2.08%. Same way, our Net NPA has also reduced by 20 bps year-on-year and
our Net NPA is today 0.25%. And we have Provision Coverage Ratio of 97.85%.
If we go by the guidance given in the beginning of the current financial year, we
have surpassed most of the guidance, like Deposit growth, we were at 11.28%
against the guidance given 10 to 12%. Same way, in credit growth, our growth is
21% plus against the guidance of 12 to 14%. We have maintained CASA ratio
within the guidance, just below 37%. RAM sector Advances constitute 64.5%, is
against our guidance of 62 to 65%. Our CD ratio stood at 82%. Credit cost has
been controlled. We have given guidance to maintain the credit cost below 0.75%
against which in the 1st Quarter, our annualized credit cost is 0.39%. Same way,
our Slippage Ratio, we have given guidance of 1%, less than 1% and our actual
Slippage Ratio annualized for the quarter is 0.63%. So thereby, we have
maintained it, our GNPA, NNPA, NIM also we have maintained as per the
guidance given. So overall, this financial performance has been encouraging.
− Other than the financial performance, if I talk about the various initiatives taken
by the bank, during this quarter also, we have taken many new steps and we
have launched many new products as well:
• Like in digital Project Parivartan, we have started Project Parivartan 2.0,
wherein we are working to create our call centre as a profit centre. So many
journeys we have been bringing on the call centre also. So thereby, in IVR, we
are offering many more services to our customers and many new customers
are connecting for their services through IVR and the Call centre. Their
fulfilment rate has also improved.

• We have launched STP Home Loan Journey in the digital drive.

• We have integrated with the ULI of RBI, that is Unified Lending Interface for

• Then we have also implemented our CBDC and we have started our CASA
back office, where all the current account and saving accounts are being
opened.
• We have implemented our DMS solution, Documents Management solution,
