CASA (current account and savings account deposits) is at a healthy 41 per cent, net interest margin at 3.06 per cent has seen 23 basis points growth over last quarter.”

The net interest income of Indian Bank rose 32 per cent to Rs 4,144 crore, while the non-interest income went up by 29 per cent to 1,611 crore owing to income from fee, forex, treasury operations and recovery of bad debts.
