Management interview of DCB Bank Ltd (DCBBANK), with 10 key numbers discussed.
- Praveen Kutty, MD & CEO, DCB Bank
DCB Bank is in advanced talks with multiple private equity players, including ChrysCapital, to raise around Rs 8-9bn in capital by December. In Q2, the bank reported 17% growth in NII and over 29% growth in PAT. Addressing asset quality concerns, MD & CEO Praveen Kutty clarified that non-gold slippages rose only 3 bps quarter-on-quarter, and total NPAs on the Rs 140bn gold loan portfolio remained limited at Rs 260mn. The bank keeps loan-to-value ratios well below regulatory ceilings to mitigate risks.
