Consolidated interest earned stood at Rs 32,452.32 crore, a growth of 7.4 per cent.
Operating profit before provisions rose 2 per cent to Rs 10,752.37 crore (standalone), with consolidated operating profit also registering a 2.1 per cent growth at Rs 11,445.05 crore. Operating expenses rose 5.6 per cent on a standalone basis to Rs 9,837.69 crore.
Despite a 14 per cent rise in provisions and contingencies at Rs 1,359 crore, the figure was 37 per cent lower sequentially. Consolidated net provisions declined to Rs 1,550.28 crore from Rs 2,239.98 crore a year ago.
Asset quality improved, with gross non-performing assets (NPAs) falling to 1.28 per cent from 1.43 per cent a year earlier, while net NPAs eased to 0.33 per cent from 0.35 per cent.
The lender declared a dividend of Re 1 per equity share for the financial year ended March 31, 2025.
For the full financial year FY25, Axis Bank posted a standalone net profit of Rs 26,373.48 crore, up 6.1 per cent from FY24. Total income rose to Rs 1,47,934.10 crore, and operating profit stood at Rs 42,104.93 crore. On a consolidated basis, net profit increased 6.3 per cent to Rs 28,055.11 crore, with total income at Rs 1,55,916.86 crore and operating profit at Rs 44,888.51 crore.
The bank reported a capital adequacy ratio of 17.07 per cent under Basel III norms and a return on assets of 1.74 per cent. Earnings per share (EPS) for FY25 stood at Rs 85.28 (basic standalone), compared to Rs 80.67 a year ago.
