India’s IndusInd Bank reported a bigger-than-expected fourth-quarter profit on Friday (April 24, 2026), as the pace of additions to bad loans slowed, with provisions also dropping. The private lender posted a profit of ₹5.33 billion for the quarter ended March 31, beating analysts’ expectation of ₹3.89 billion, per LSEG- compiled data.
In the year-ago quarter, the bank had reported its biggest-ever quarterly loss due to years of misaccounting of internal derivative trades. Analysts said stress in segments such as microfinance, where IndusInd Bank grappled with high bad loans, would ease during the quarter, as the bank tightened lending, helping limit new bad loans and improving its asset quality.
