IDBI Bank Q3 net profit remains almost flat at ₹1,935 crore
IDBI Bank on Saturday (January 17, 2026) reported almost flat profit at ₹1,935 crore for the third quarter ended December 2025.
The LIC-controlled bank reported a net profit of ₹1,908 crore in the year-ago period.

The bank's interest income also fell during the third quarter of the current fiscal year to ₹7,074 crore against ₹7,816 crore a year ago.
The gross Non-Performing Asset (NPA) ratio improved to 2.57% as of December 31, 2025, compared to 3.57% a year ago.
However, the net NPA remained static at 0.18% at the end of December 2025.
During the quarter, however, the bank's capital adequacy ratio rose to 24.63% compared to 21.98% at the end of December 2024.
On the other hand, Return on Assets (ROA) moderated to 1.83% in Q3-FY26 compared to 1.99% for Q3 FY25.

Meanwhile, life insurance behemoth LIC, which has a 49.24% shareholding in IDBI Bank, is keen to hold a strategic stake so that it can enjoy the benefit of the bancassurance channel.
