Kolkata: Bandhan Bank announced its financial results for the third quarter of the financial year 2023-24. The bank’s total business grew by 17%, to stand at Rs.2.33 lakh crore. The Bank’s share of retail to total deposits now stands at 71%. The encouraging growth witnessed in the quarter has been driven by its expansion in distribution and the favourable operating environment.
During the quarter, the Bank opened 26 branches across the country. The Bank now serves more than 3.26 crore customers through more than 6,250 banking outlets in India. The total number of employees working at Bandhan Bank is now more than 75,000.

The current account and savings account (CASA) ratio is a healthy 36.1% of the overall deposit book. Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR), an indicator of the stability of the Bank, is at 19.8%, much higher than the regulatory requirement.
Speaking on the results, Chandra Shekhar Ghosh, MD & CEO, said, “The third quarter has always been a growth phase for the Bank over the years. In the beginning of the quarter, the Bank underwent a Core Banking System (CBS) migration. With the new system, we are confident of a further boost in the growth of business. The Bank is committed to serving all its customers through products and services suited to their needs. We will also continue to actively evaluate distribution expansion opportunities to reach out to a larger population across the nation.”
The Bank has steadily grown and will continue to grow its portfolio in verticals like SME Loans, Gold Loans, Personal Loans and Auto Loans, among other product ranges. The Bank had also recently launched new verticals like Commercial Vehicle lending and Loan Against Property for businesses, among others, which will help the book grow further in the next few quarters.
