18 September 2018 The government has chosen the three banks for the merger as they fit well into the strategy of Anchor Bank (Bank of Baroda) + Good Bank (Vijaya Bank) + Stressed Bank (Dena Bank). While both BOB and Vijaya Bank have reported an improvement in their earnings performance, Dena Bank is under the RBIs Prompt Corrective Action (PCA) framework and has been restrained from further lending. Dena Bank has a GNPA/NNPA ratio of 22.7%/11.0%, while Vijaya Bank has a significantly lower GNPA/NNPA ratio of 6.2%/4.1%. This compares with the 12.5%/5.4% GNPA/NNPA ratio for BOB. The merger of BOB, Vijaya Bank and Dena Bank will create the third largest lender in the country with an advances and deposits market share of 7.0% and 7.3%, respectively. While BOB already has a wide-spread network, Dena Bank and Vijaya Bank are more regional focused banks.
SBI's asset quality improved on the back of moderation in fresh slippages and resolution of two NCLT cases (Bhushan Steel and Electrosteel Steels). While slippages moderated to 3.0% as compared to 7.0% QoQ and 6.5% YoY, recoveries jumped 3x QoQ. Consequently, Gross nonperforming asset (NPA) ratio dipped by 22 bps QoQ to 10.7%. Net NPA ratio declined at a faster pace of 44 bps QoQ to 5.3% as the bank improved its provision coverage ratio (PCR) by 308 bps QoQ to 69.3%. SBI disclosed a watch-list of Rs24,600cr which will be a potential source of incremental slippages from the corporate book. We project slippages of 3.0% in FY19E and expect it to decline to 2.0% by FY20E. As a result, Gross/Net NPA ratios will moderate to 8.0%/4.1% by FY20E. Further, SBI holds provision buffer of 71% on total outstanding of Rs63,000cr in NCLT...
