· Economic Times Markets, ET Stocks
Bandhan Bank reported a five-fold rise in Q2 profit to Rs 622 crore, supported by lower provisions and improving asset quality. Net interest income grew 14%, margins strengthened, gross advances increased 13%, and deposits rose 9% year-on-year.
The analysis
Bandhan Bank reported Rs 622 crore, with movement of 9%, 14% and 13% attached to those lines. Those are the figures as filed — what moves the price is how they sit against what the market already expected, not their absolute size.
Against that, the stock is -4.6% on the day at ₹154.33, and has returned -10.7% over three months. It sits 29% below its 52-week high, which means a good deal of bad news was already in the price. The banks sector has moved -6.0% over the same period, so Bandhan Bank is running 4.7 points behind its peers.
For Bandhan Bank, the question is how much of this is already reflected in the price and how much re-rates the banks peer set alongside it.
Why it matters
- Earnings versus expectations is what actually re-rates a stock; the surprise matters more than the absolute number.
