    Parameswaran Subramanian's questions to ICICI BANK (IBN) leadership • Q4 2025

    Question

    Parameswaran Subramanian of Investec Capital Services asked for the drivers behind the significant quarterly increase in the bank's net worth, which exceeded the profit after tax. He also inquired about the future outlook for the bank's CASA (Current Account Savings Account) ratio.

    Answer

    Executive Anindya Banerjee clarified that the primary driver for the net worth increase was the issuance of shares related to the ICICI Securities merger, which is capital-neutral but boosts the net worth figure. On CASA, he stressed focusing on the total quantum and cost of funding rather than a specific ratio outlook, but logically concurred that CASA pressures should ease with monetary easing and improved liquidity.
