Bank of Baroda Q2 highlights: Profit dips 8.2% to ₹4,809 crore
Bank of Baroda (BoB) reported an 8.2 per cent year-on-year (Y-o-Y) decline in net profit to ₹4,809 crore for the July–September quarter (Q2FY26), mainly due to lower non-interest income after a one-off recovery last year.
The results were announced post market hours on Thursday, with the bank’s stock closing 2.05 per cent higher at ₹278.30 on the BSE.
Net interest income (NII) rose 2.7 per cent to ₹11,954 crore, while the net interest margin (NIM) eased to 2.96 per cent from 3.11 per cent a year earlier. However, NIM improved sequentially from 2.91 per cent in Q1FY26.
Vedanta Q2 profit falls 59% on exceptional losses
Mining and metals major Vedanta Ltd reported a sharp 58.69 per cent Y-o-Y drop in consolidated net profit to ₹1,798 crore for Q2FY26, weighed down by exceptional losses.
The company had posted an exceptional gain of ₹1,160 crore in the same quarter last year. The latest quarter included a ₹1,407 crore write-off at its Talwandi Sabo Power (TSPL) unit following a Supreme Court order dated August 19. Though a review petition is pending, the company has treated the amount as non-recoverable.
It also incurred a ₹660 crore settlement cost with SEPCO Electric Power Construction Corporation.
Revenue for the quarter rose 5.94 per cent to ₹39,868 crore, supported by improved commodity realisations.
