V Vaidyanathan, Managing Director and CEO, IDFC FIRST Bank, said, It is my delight to share that we have crossed a landmark of Rs 4,00,000 crore mark of total deposits and advances including credit substitutes at the bank. What is more important for us is that the asset quality continues to be maintained at all-time best of GNPA and NNPA of 1.88% and 0.60% respectively, the lowest NPA in our history. All legacy infrastructure loans are fully factored into the above. Excluding infrastructure loans, the GNPA and NNPA is only 1.55% and 0.42% respectively. All asset quality parameters are stable.
Our deposit raising franchise is our biggest strength. Our CASA ratio continues to be among the best in the industry at around 47%. Our Incremental Credit to Deposit ratio for FY 24 was low at 76%. The CD ratio has come down to 98.4%, i.e. below 100% for the first time and we expect to further reduce this into FY 25.
The PAT grew 21% YoY to Rs. 2957 cr in FY 24. More important, the core PPOP (excluding trading gain) grew by 31% YOY for the year to cross Rs. 6,000 crores for the first time in our history. Such scale and strong profitability give us the strength to participate in the wonderful opportunities in Indian financial services. We look forward to the future with confidence and optimism.
