Federal Bank Q2FY26 results: Net profit drops 9.51% to ₹992 crore

Federal Bank on Saturday reported a 9.51 per cent decline in its September quarter consolidated net profit at Rs 991.94 crore as provisions surged. The private sector lender had reported a net profit of Rs 1,096.25 crore for the year-ago period. The core net interest income rose 5.4 per cent to Rs 2,495 crore on the back of a 6.23 per cent growth in its loan book and a 0.06 per cent compression in the net interest margin year-on-year at 3.06 per cent. A senior bank official said the lender is aiming to grow the book by 10-12 per cent in the second half of the fiscal, which will be higher than the 7.6 per cent in H1 and lead to a credit growth of under 10 per cent for FY26 even if the upper end of the aim for the latter half is met. This will be lower than the 12.14 per cent for FY25.

We can wait and see course of economy before going for rate cut: Powell

The Federal Reserve will continue to wait and see how the economy evolves before deciding whether to reduce its key interest rate, Chair Jerome Powell said on Tuesday, a stance directly at odds with President Donald Trump's calls for immediate cuts. For the time being, we are well positioned to wait to learn more about the likely course of the economy before considering any adjustments to our policy stance, Powell said in prepared remarks he will deliver early Tuesday before the House Financial Services Committee. Powell is facing two days of what could be tough grilling on Capitol Hill, as Trump has repeatedly urged the Fed to reduce borrowing costs. Powell has often received a positive reception before House and Senate committees that oversee the Fed, or at least muted criticism. Powell has also often cited his support in Congress as a bulwark against Trump's attacks, but that support could wane under the president's ongoing assaults. Trump lashed out again in the early hours of

Federal Bank Q4 results: Profit rises 12%, flags downward pressures on NIMs

Federal Bank's consolidated profit rose by 12.37 per cent to Rs 1,091 crore for the March quarter, helped by a jump in non-interest income. On a standalone basis, the private sector bank's Q4 net moved up to Rs 1,030 crore from Rs 906 crore in the year-ago period. The core net interest income grew 8 per cent to Rs 2,377 crore from Rs 2,195 crore, and was marginally down when compared with the quarter-ago period's Rs 2,431 crore.
