India’s central banks are reduced by 25%.
Brokerage BNP Paribas Credit Growth Revival is converted into imported momentum. “Our prognosis for large -scale banks is the expansion of 2HFY26 or at least stability after the shallow floor of 1HFY26. Therefore, we expect that reasonable credit growth will be shifted to simultaneous income growth momentum for FY26 banks.
RAKESH VYAS, co -investor and portfolio manager of Quest Investment Advisors, is seeing RBI’s measures to strengthen system liquidity to support FY26’s continuous credit growth. As a result, despite potential margin compression, the banking sector is likely to achieve double -digit growth in FY26, and asset quality is stable and there will be no signs of worsening so far.
