For the second quarter of FY2024, RBL Bank reported a net interest income of ₹1,614.97 crore, an increase from ₹1,586.07 crore in the previous quarter. This reflects a year-on-year growth from ₹1,245.78 crore for the same period last year. The growth in net interest income is driven by a strategic focus on enhancing its lending portfolio and optimizing its cost of funds.
The bank also reported a net profit of ₹222.52 crore for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, down from ₹371.52 crore in the previous quarter but representing an increase compared to ₹294.08 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous year.

The total income for the quarter reached ₹4,458.29 crore, marking a healthy rise compared to ₹3,712.39 crore in Q2 FY2023. This growth can be attributed to increased interest earned from advances, income from investments, and robust performance in other banking operations.
