Revenue guidance

Category 3
  • City Union Bank expects to achieve double-digit credit growth mainly from the second half of FY2024.
  • Initial signs of growth are visible, supported by the digitization efforts and implementation of the Loan Origination System (LOS).
  • The LOS rollout, led by Newgen Software with BCG coordination, is on track with soft launches underway and full production expected by early January 2024.
  • The digital lending platform is expected to significantly improve turnaround times, especially for MSME loans, which should boost credit disbursement and growth.
  • The bank aims for overall loan growth of around 10-15% for the full year, skewed towards the second half as the recovery cycle stabilizes and asset quality improves.
  • Growth momentum has begun with quarterly credit growth of 2-3% in Q2 FY2024.
  • The bank sees sustainable profitability growth once NPAs reduce and credit costs decline, supporting stronger sales/revenue volumes going forward.
