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.
