Union Bank of India Q1 business update

Total business stood at ₹22.14 lakh crore as of 30th June 2025, down 1.80 per cent from ₹22.55 lakh crore in the March quarter. Global deposits fell 2.54 per cent sequentially to ₹12.40 lakh crore, while domestic CASA (current and savings account) deposits dropped 5.43 per cent.
 
On the lending side, global gross advances declined 0.85 per cent quarter-on-quarter (Q-o-Q) to ₹9.75 lakh crore, with domestic advances also seeing a 0.83 per cent dip.
