State-run IDBI Bank on Friday posted a loss of Rs 5,662.76 crore for the
fourth quarter ending March, its numbers being pulled down further by
its deteriorating bad loans.
IDBI had reported a net loss of Rs
3,199.77 crore in the corresponding quarter of the last fiscal, the bank
said in a stock exchange filing. It has now reported losses for the
sixth successive quarter. Its net interest income fell 44 per
cent to Rs 915.47 crore during the quarter in consideration, as compared
to Rs 1,633.29 crore in the same quarter last year.
The asset
quality of the lender dropped further with the percentage of gross
non-performing assets (NPAs), or bad loans, shooting up 27.95 per cent
in the quarter under review, as against 21.25 per cent in the fourth
quarter of 2017-18 and 24.72 per cent in the last quarter.
IDBI's
gross NPAs during the fourth quarter went up to Rs 55,588.26 crore
against Rs 44,752.59 crore in the same quarter last year.
Provisions
and contingencies rose to Rs 10,544.34 crore during the quarter in
question, over Rs 5,864.65 crore in the corresponding quarter last year
and Rs 4,655.80 crore in the previous quarter ending December.
The
divergence as defined by the Reserve Bank of India in IDBI's gross and
net NPAs for 2016-17 stood at Rs 10,282 crore and Rs 5,818 crore,
respectively.
The IDBI bank stock closed on Friday at Rs 65.10 a share, down Rs 2.10, or by 3.13 per cent on its previous close on the BSE.
