Bandhan Bank, despite being a former micro-finance players and considering the impact of demonetization, posted the lowest NPAs amongst scheduled commercial banks with a GNPA ratio of 0.5% in fiscal year 2017. Bank’s loan book grew 35% in fiscal year 2017, the highest amongst scheduled commercial banks which is expected to increase considering the last quarter growth usually high . Additionally, since beginning operations bank have generated increasing non-interest income as a percentage of overall income, improving from 8.66% for March 2016 to 35.38% for the nine months ended December 31, 2017.
