Our focus is to continue increasing our market share in assets and deposits in RuSu markets, accelerate the PSL self-sufficiency at a Bank level, increase pace of digitisation, enhance the distribution through branches and partnerships network, and dominate several rural ecosystem.
Our pursuit of becoming a growth and profitability engine is trending in the right direction with disbursals and book growing strongly across retail and institutional lines, declining credit cost and maintaining a healthy risk adjusted return on capital. The book continues to be highly PSL-accretive and a key pillar in achieving PSL self-sufficiency at a bank level. In our endeavour of Open to Win Together, we have worked across the Bank to deliver on several initiatives such as scaling up multi product architecture significantly through ‘Deep Geo’ initiative and partnerships such as CSC, enabling more branches to source products such as gold loans and increasing intensity of cross-sell from the sales architecture. To create distinctiveness in RuSu markets, the business is building digital journeys across products, strengthening processes and governance, building several ecosystems, improving propositions to promote credit flow in RuSu markets and enhancing the brand through local and vernacular marketing. We are primed to secure our position as a preferred banking partner for the RuSu customers.
Building new customer-centric products, customising propositions for the rural customers, enabling products through policy framework, improving the coverage of products and making the product suite comprehensive for the RuSu customers.
Enhanced distribution by opening 74 new Bharat Banking branches and adding 21K+ CSC VLE in the last year, creating a rural ecosystem through a mix of partnerships such as CSC and physical networks such as Mandi and FPO.
