Despite sequential improvement in asset quality and business growth, Equirus Securities remains cautious on the pace of earnings recovery of IndusInd Bank.
“Core profitability remains modest, with FY28E RoA of ~1.1%, while NIM is likely to remain under pressure in the near term due to an adverse loan mix. Consistent execution over the next few quarters, translating into sustained RoA improvement, will be critical to establish confidence in the recovery trajectory,” said the brokerage house.
Equirus Securities raised its FY27 earnings estimates by 2%, but downgraded the stock to ‘Reduce’ from ‘Add’, with a March 2027 target price of ₹1,055.
