what happened

According to TradingView, Kotak Mahindra Bank's consolidated and standalone profit grew in the second quarter of fiscal 2027 compared with a year earlier. The increase was supported by higher operating profit and a lower ratio of non-performing assets (NPA).

Strong deposit and loan balances came alongside negative operating cash flow in the first half. Project-finance exposures and loan transfers remain the key areas to watch.

why it matters

The picture is mixed: asset quality is improving, but negative operating cash flow warrants attention from investors. Developments in project finance and loan transfers could shape how the market values the bank and the Nifty Bank index.
