INDIAN BANK: Operating performance showing recovery signs
(INBK IN, Mkt Cap USD2.3b, CMP INR139, TP INR175, 26% Upside, Buy)
Slippages/credit cost likely to stay elevated; restructured book ~2.7%
- INBK reported healthy operating performance supported by modest opex and higher other income, even as business growth remains muted. NIM, however, expanded 51bp QoQ to 2.85% (higher slippages in 4QFY21). Provisions continue to remain elevated, despite the bank reporting healthy RoA/RoE of ~0.8%/15% in 1QFY22.
- Asset quality was largely stable even as slippages came in elevated (~5% annualized). Collection efficiency declined in 1QFY22, while witnessing improving trends from Jul'21. Restructuring book stands ~2.7% of loans, while the high SMA book (~7.6%) would keep asset quality under check.
- We expect business growth to pick up gradually, which is likely to support margin. However, slippages are likely to remain elevated, which would keep credit cost elevated. We estimate RoA/RoE of 0.8%/14.5% by FY23E. We resume coverage with a Buy rating.
