Sector-level observations

Large private banks showed divergence: HDFC Bank inched up, while ICICI Bank and Axis Bank saw mild selling. IndusInd Bank, which has been under broader scrutiny in recent months, continued to face downward pressure.

Public sector banks (PSBs) were split. Bank of Maharashtra and Punjab & Sind Bank gained, while Bank of Baroda, Bank of India, Indian Bank, and SBI all edged lower. Canara Bank and Union Bank were marginally negative.

Small finance banks were broadly flat to slightly positive, with AU Small Finance Bank up 0.28% and Equitas up 0.99%. Ujjivan Small Finance Bank was a minor exception, slipping 0.51%.

Broader market context: The Nifty 50 was up 0.11% at 24,223 and the S&P BSE Sensex was at 78,147, up 0.20% — suggesting the broader market was slightly positive while banking underperformed.

Broad pressure, scattered green shoots

Of the 36 banks tracked, only 9 traded in positive territory as of 9:49 AM. The selling was widespread across private and public sector banks.

A handful of gainers

Bandhan Bank, Bank of Maharashtra, Karur Vysya Bank, and Ujjivan Small Finance Bank also edged higher.
