New Delhi/IBNS: India's largest public sector lender SBI on Wednesday posted a strong net profit of Rs 4,574 Crores, up by 51.88 per cent Year-on-Year (YoY) in quarter ended September 30 of this fiscal.

SBI had reported a net profit of  Rs 3,012 crore in the same quarter last year.

Net interest income - the difference between the revenue generated from a bank's interest-bearing assets and interest paid to the depositors- rose to 14.6 per cent (YoY) to Rs 28,181.5 crore in Q2FY21.

The bank recorded a credit growth of 6.02 per cent in the second quarter of FY21 (YoY), and a net interest margin at 3.34 percent for the period, registering an increase of 12 bps (YoY).

Total Deposits grew at 14.41 per cent (YoY), out of which Current Account Deposit grew by 8.55 per cent YoY, while Saving Bank Deposits grew by 16.28 per cent (YoY).

"Bank has delivered a strong performance in Q2FY21 with all round improvement in Profitability, Capital Adequacy and Provision Coverage Ratio, including Additional Provision over Minimum Regulatory Provisions required,"the bank said in a statement on Wednesday.

The bank's asset quality improved with Gross NPA ratio at 5.28 per cent, down 191 bps YoY and 16 bps QoQ while Net NPA ratio stood at 1.59 per cent, down 120 bps YoY and 27 bps QoQ.

Gross NPA ratio is calculated as the ratio of total gross NPA to total advances (loans) of the bank while Net NPA ratio is the ratio of Net NPA to advances.

The GNPA and NNPA would have been at 5.88 per cent and 2.08 per cent, respectively, had the bank declared the loan accounts as NPA after August 2020, in accordance with the Income Recognition and Asset Classification (IRAC) norms of the RBI, SBI said.
