Karur Vysya Bank Ltd.’s (KVB) standalone second-quarter net profit rose 52% to ₹250 crore on account of higher net interest margin and a reduction in non-performing assets (NPAs).
Net interest income grew 21% to ₹821 crore while net interest margin improved to 4.07% from 3.74%. Non-interest income stood at ₹242 crore against ₹165 crore, the private sector lender said.
Gross NPAs declined by 341 bps to 3.97% (₹2,457 crore) compared with 7.38% (₹3,972 crore) while net NPAs slid to 1.36% (₹819 crore) from 2.99% (₹1,538 crore). Provision coverage ratio improved to 86.94 (76.28%).
Total business rose 14% to ₹1,35,460 crore. Deposits grew 13% to ₹73,614 crore while advances rose 15% to ₹61,846 crore. Basel III capital adequacy ratio stood at 18.31%.

Insurance penetration and density are often misunderstood and do not reveal how many families are insured or whether they would be financially secure if the main earning member were to die. The real issue is not reach but adequacy, as households may have life insurance but not enough cover to replace lost income, leaving them financially vulnerable.
