Industry experts had projected a net profit of Rs 9,500 crore for ICICI Bank, but the bank has exceeded all estimates, leaving analysts surprised and impressed. The main catalyst behind this impressive performance is believed to be the bank’s non-performing loan volume, which has remained stable and controlled.

This strategic move has significantly contributed to the bank’s strong quarterly results, beating market forecasts. Moreover, the bank’s net interest income has also witnessed an impressive growth of 24%, amounting to Rs 18,308 crore.
The outstanding performance has not gone unnoticed by stockbrokers, who have showered ICICI Bank with accolades. Several leading stockbrokers have given the bank a buy recommendation, underlining their confidence in its future growth potential. Furthermore, they have set a target price for ICICI Bank at Rs 1,250, representing a substantial 35% premium over the current market price.
Investors and shareholders alike have cause for celebration as ICICI Bank continues to deliver exceptional results. With the bank’s strong financial footing and efficient management, it appears poised for continued success in the coming quarters.
