- Private sector investment, which was low in the last 3 years, is now picking up with fresh Capex and both brownfield and greenfield projects underway, expected to boost credit demand. - Credit growth is anticipated to be robust over the next 2 years due to pent-up demand in retail loans (e.g., housing, consumer finance) and increased utilization of working capital by corporates amid inflation and rising commodity prices. - Corporate credit growth is normalizing post-PCA exit, with a targeted 10-15% growth in advances in coming quarters. - The bank aims for balanced, quality growth rather than aggressive lending to maintain asset quality. - Deposit growth strategies include increasing deposit rates and bulk deposits, leveraging excess liquidity and competitive interest rates, indicating expected growth in deposits alongside credit. - Overall, sustained business growth, improved NIM, and robust operating performance indicate positive revenue growth trajectory.
