Yes Bank share price jumped by 5% on the BSE today. The company has posted a significant 63.3% year-on-year (YoY) jump in standalone net profit to ₹738 crore in Q4FY25. The robust performance reflects continued improvements in asset quality and lending activity. This has boosted investor confidence considerably.
The bank’s net interest income (NII) rose by 5.7% YoY to ₹2,276.3 crore, while its interest income increased 2.3% YoY to ₹7,616 crore. The lender also reported a net interest margin (NIM) of 2.5% in Q4, a slight improvement from 2.4% last year. For FY25, the NIM stood at 2.4%.
Yes Bank continues to strengthen its balance sheet. The net non-performing asset (NPA) ratio declined to 0.3%, down from 0.5% in the previous quarter, and gross NPAs remained stable at 1.6%. These are the lowest levels since March 2020, signaling a healthy shift in the bank’s asset quality.
However, provisions rose 23% quarter-on-quarter to ₹318.1 crore, indicating prudence in risk management.
The lender witnessed an 8.1% YoY rise in advances to ₹2.46 lakh crore and a 6.8% YoY increase in deposits to ₹2.85 lakh crore. The CASA (Current Account Savings Account) ratio improved to 34.3%, from 30.9% in Q4FY24 and 33.1% in the previous quarter, showing better low-cost deposit mobilisation.
Gross slippages for Q4FY25 stood at ₹1,223 crore (2% of advances), lower than ₹1,348 crore (2.2%) in the previous quarter. CEO and MD Prashant Kumar highlighted that the bank ended the year with 0.7% return on assets (RoA) and full Priority Sector Lending (PSL) compliance.
Yes Bank’s Q4 results reflect a strong turnaround with improved profitability, stable asset quality, and steady business growth. With improved margins, reduced NPAs, and positive outlook, the bank is on a recovery path.
At 9.38 AM, Yes Bank share price was up 4.98% and was trading at ₹18.99.
