- Net Interest Income & Net Interest Margin
Net Interest Income (NII) is the difference between the interest earned on a bank’s assets (such as loans and investments) and the interest paid on its liabilities (such as deposits and borrowings).
Net Interest Margin (NIM) is calculated by dividing the NII by the average interest-earning assets.
Net Interest Income for the quarter of June 30, 2023, at INR 4,867 Cr, grew by 18% YoY and 4% QoQ. Net Interest Margin for Q1 of FY24 stood at 4.29% against 4.21% for Q1 of FY23 and 4.28% for Q4 of FY23. The bank has been increasing its NIM% consistently by focusing on high-yielding segments like MFI and vehicle finance.
- Asset Quality (GNPA & NNPA)
NPA stands for Non-Performing Asset. It refers to a loan or an advance where the borrower has not paid the interest or the principal amount for a specified period, usually for 90 days or more.
Gross NPA refers to the total value of a bank’s non-performing assets. Net NPA, on the other hand, is the value of NPA after reducing the provisions made by the bank to cover the losses that may arise from such non-performing assets.
IndusInd’s reported asset quality metrics for corporate and retail segments have been range bound, with overall GNPA between 1.0% – 1.2% from March 31, 2014, to December 31, 2018. Since fiscal 2019, due to slippage of some corporate accounts and COVID-19-related stress in the past fiscal, the gross NPA has increased steadily to 2.9% as of June 30, 2021, which has improved to 1.94% as of June 30, 2023. The GNPA of the Bank is one of the lowest in the industry, with adequate provision coverage of 71% and a provision buffer of INR 1700 Cr, with total loan-related provision standing at 2.4% as of June 2023.
- Advances & Deposits
An advance refers to a loan or credit extended by a bank to its customers. Banks offer various advances such as personal, business, home, education, vehicle, and credit card loans. Advances as of June 30, 2023, were INR 3,01,317 Cr as against INR 2,47,960 Cr, an increase of 22% compared to June 30, 2022.
Deposits are a critical source of funding for banks, and they use these funds to provide loans and advances to customers.
Deposits as on June 30, 2023, were INR 3,47,047 Cr as against INR 3,02,719 Cr, an increase of 15% over June 30, 2022. Deposits growth is driven by granular retail deposits. The bank has a stable, low-cost deposit base, another reason contributing to the high profitability of the bank.
The bank’s share of CASA (Current Account & Savings Account) deposits ratio is ~40% as of Q1FY24 and has reduced slightly from 43% in Q1FY23. Bank continues to focus on this journey of growing better CASA deposits which will help reduce the overall cost of deposits and manage liquidity.
- Improving Return ratios (ROA & ROE)
IndusInd Bank has been improving its RoA (A higher RoA suggests that a bank is more efficient in generating profits from its assets) & ROE (the higher the ROE, the more efficient a company’s management is at generating income and growth from its equity financing) over the last few quarters as can be seen in the chart below.
IndusInd Bank’s ROA currently stands around 1.9%, supported by healthy net Interest margins with some exposure to high-yield segments such as vehicle finance and MFI.
IndusInd Bank Share price history
IndusInd Bank launched its IPO in Jan 1998 at ~INR 45 per share, and today, the stock trades at INR 1372 per share (as of 18th August).
Like all private banks in India, IndusInd, too, has created significant wealth for its shareholders. The stock has delivered a 10-year CAGR of ~14% (from 18th August 2003 to 18th August 2023). More recently, the stock has given a 3-year CAGR of ~39% (from 18th August 2010 to 18th August 2023).
IndusInd Bank Share Price Target Growth Potential
The management has introduced planning cycle – 6 (FY23–26), wherein they have guided for 18-23% YoY credit growth, mainly driven by retail (55-60% proportion) and PPOP margins (pre-provision operating margins) to be 5.25-5.75% range.
The focus will be on new business verticals (home loans) to aid business growth and gain market share. An uptick in NIMs is expected, led by a higher share of retail loans, including the micro-finance segment.
The company is investing in ramping up phygital distribution channels, which will keep the Cost to Income ratio elevated for a couple of quarters. However, improvement in credit cost will boost earnings growth and return ratio.
Key Risks:
- An unanticipated rise in defaults to erode margins and increase credit cost
Any unexpected rise in delinquencies, particularly in the vehicle and MFI segments, could increase the stress on assets and strain its profitability. Higher-than-anticipated failure could result in elevated interest income reversals, lower credit yield, and margin compression.
- Lower credit growth in FY24 and FY25
Any further weakness in credit quality and lower credit demand could impact interest income and fee revenue recognition, thereby impacting profitability.
