Results were aided by growth in net interest income (NII) and non-interest income. A decline in provisions was a tailwind. However, higher operating expenses hurt the results to some extent.
IBN’s NII & Fee Income Improve, Expenses Rise
NII grew 12.7% year over year to INR243.84 billion ($2.58 billion). The net interest margin was 4.36%, up 2 basis points.

In the reported quarter, IBN recorded treasury income of INR1.51 billion ($15.96 million), down 87.8% from the prior-year quarter.
Operating expenses were INR125.74 billion ($1.33 billion), up 10.4% year over year.
ICICI Bank’s Loans & Deposits Increase
As of June 30, 2026, ICICI Bank’s total advances were INR16,312.60 billion ($172.34 billion), up 5% sequentially. Growth was driven by a rise in retail loans, rural loans, business banking loans, and domestic corporate and other loans.
Total deposits were INR18,335.86 billion ($193.71 billion), up 2.2% from the previous quarter.
IBN’s Credit Quality Improves
As of June 30, 2026, the net non-performing assets (NPA) ratio was 0.35%, which declined from 0.41% as of June 30, 2025. Recoveries and upgrades (excluding write-offs and sales) of NPAs were INR28.45 billion ($300.69 million) in the reported quarter.
In the reported quarter, there were net additions of INR27.07 billion ($286.10 million) to gross NPA. Gross NPA additions were INR55.52 billion ($586.79 million), while gross NPA written off was INR16.73 billion ($176.82 million).

Capital Ratios Strong for ICICI Bank
In compliance with the Reserve Bank of India's guidelines on Basel III norms, ICICI Bank's total capital adequacy was 16.84%. The Common Equity Tier 1 ratio was 16.19% as of June 30, 2026.
Our Take on IBN
Mounting expenses due to ICICI Bank’s initiatives to digitize banking operations are expected to weigh on profitability in the coming quarters. Additionally, weak credit quality remains a near-term headwind. However, robust loan demand, efforts to digitize operations for bolstering fee income and decent economic growth are expected to offer some support.
