Factors that impacted Profit from core operations(PPOP)

• Flat core profitability despite higher income: Pre-provision operating profit for FY26 stood at Rs 1,357 crore, nearly unchanged from Rs 1,353 crore in FY25, indicating limited improvement in core profitability despite strong growth in overall business income.
• Impact of payments bank consolidation: Total income rose 78 percent YoY to Rs 3,274 crore, supported by full inclusion of Jio Payments Bank. However, its lower-margin structure diluted overall profitability and weighed on consolidated margins.
• Rising costs and lower treasury gains: Operating expenses surged to Rs 1,916 crore in FY26 from Rs 484 crore in FY25 due to investments in new businesses. Net gains on investments also fell to Rs 745 crore from Rs 794 crore, impacted by global volatility, which weighed on treasury income despite a higher capital base, leading to reduced investment gains and dampening overall profitability during the period.
