The stock has touched a record high of Rs 971 on the BSE in intra-day trades today. It has rallied 9% from Rs 894 on July 10, after the company posted a 25% rise in net profit at Rs 525 crore for the quarter ended June 30, compared to Rs 421 crore in the year-ago quarter, on the back of strong growth in net interest income. The S&P BSE Sensex has gained less than 1% during the same period.
