Net interest income and other income supported total income of Rs 8,670 mn for the quarter and Rs 33,120 mn for the year.

Advances rose 18 per cent year on year, with mortgages up eight per cent, co?lending 25 per cent, construction finance 14 per cent and agriculture and inclusive banking 19 per cent, while deposits grew 21 per cent. Asset quality improved: gross non?performing assets were 2.45 per cent and net non?performing assets 0.89 per cent, with a provision coverage ratio of 78.42 per cent, or 78.97 per cent excluding gold loan NPAs.
