The Wave 3 of covid is a matter of concern, but at this point in time, we see that normal life has not been impacted much due to this. Our flagship product, Small Business Loans remains resilient and affordable housing loans and new commercial vehicle loans are primed for growth in the coming quarters. Deposits continue to perform well and during the quarter the Bank has been able to significantly improve its retail focus and moderate the excess liquidity. An over 50% CASA ratio is something we would be focussed to retain going forward. Result PDF30-01-2022
