Yes Bank Q1 Results: Net profit rises 58.8% YoY to Rs 801 crore, gross NPA at 1.6%
For Q1 FY26, the bank's net profit surged 57% year-on-year (YoY) to ₹808.6 crore, compared to ₹516 crore in the same quarter last year. The rise in profitability was supported by growth in core income and other income.
Net Interest Income (NII), the bank's core income earned from lending activities, increased by 5.8% YoY to ₹2,370 crore from ₹2,240 crore a year ago. Other income rose significantly to ₹1,824 crore, up from ₹1,270 crore last year, contributing to the improved bottomline.
On the asset quality front, gross NPA ratio remained stable at 1.6%, unchanged from the previous quarter, and improved from 1.7% last year. The net NPA ratio also remained unchanged at 0.3%, reflecting a steady credit performance. Provisions for the quarter fell to ₹284 crore from ₹317 crore in March 2025, further supporting profitability.
However, business growth moderated. Advances grew by just 5.1% YoY to ₹2.41 lakh crore but declined 2% sequentially. Deposits increased by 4% YoY to ₹2.75 lakh crore but also fell 3% compared to the March quarter. The Credit-Deposit Ratio edged up to 87.5% versus 86.5% in March.
Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) stood at 135.7%, improving from 125% in the March quarter.
During the quarter, Yes Bank maintained its annualised slippage ratio at a 10-quarter low while net interest margins remained at an eight-quarter high.
Recently, Yes Bank made headlines after a consortium of lenders led by State Bank of India announced the sale of a 20% stake to Japan's SMBC for over ₹13,000 crore. This stake sale comes after the consortium rescued Yes Bank from a liquidity crisis in 2020.
The bank remains focused on maintaining asset quality and improving profitability while addressing muted loan and deposit growth.

Astronomer chief people officer, Kristin Cabot, resigns after viral Coldplay video
Kristin Cabot, the chief people officer of Astronomer, has resigned, the company confirmed to CNN Thursday. The resignation comes after Cabot, who oversaw the organization's human resources, and Andy Byron, the then-chief executive of the New York-based tech company, were spotted embracing at a Coldplay concert earlier this month. Byron resigned last week after being placed on leave, according to an earlier statement shared with CNN. The two were seen on a Jumbotron screen – a so-called 'kiss cam' – at a Coldplay concert at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, last week, embracing before separating and ducking out of view. 'Whoa, look at these two,' Coldplay frontman Chris Martin quipped at the time. 'Either they're having an affair or they're just very shy.' The video of the two quickly went viral online, along with alleged statements from the ex-CEO acknowledging the situation. Astronomer, however, said on LinkedIn that Bryon had not put out any statement and 'reports saying otherwise are all incorrect.' That statement also addressed the misidentification of a third person seen in the viral clip. 'Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability,' the statement also read. The data operations company, founded in 2018, acknowledged in a separate statement that 'awareness of our company may have changed overnight,' but its mission would continue to focus on addressing data and artificial intelligence problems. The company said Astronomer's co-founder and Chief Product Officer, Pete DeJoy, would serve as interim CEO. Byron's LinkedIn account is no longer public, and he was removed from the company's leadership page following the announcement, which now lists co-founder DeJoy as CEO. CNN's Lisa Respers France and Auzinea Bacon contributed to this report.
