The continuing gap between credit and deposit growth rates is likely to impact both future loan sales as well as net interest margins of banks, says a report. Credit off-take grew at 20.3 per cent in this fiscal so far while deposits grew at a slower pace of 13.6 per cent YTD, according to the report by Care Ratings. The gap between credit off-take and deposit growth rates has resulted in a lower liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) while private banks led by HDFC Bank are reporting lower LCR than their public sector peers. According to a Care Ratings analysis, HDFC Bank has seen the highest fall from 120 per cent in the July-September quarter of FY24 to around 102 per cent in the third quarter, followed by ICICI Bank and Axis Bank at 118 per cent each for both quarters. On the other hand, the largest lender SBI has around 140 per cent in the second quarter and around 137 per cent in the third quarter of the current fiscal, while PNB and BoB has over 140 per cent each for both quarters.
