ICICIBC has delivered 34 per cent earnings CAGR over FY18-21 v/s a 15 per cent decline over FY15- 18. This has enabled 31 per cent CAGR in m-cap over FY18-21. During FY21/FY22 YTD, the stock has returned 80 per cent/42 per cent, making it one of the best performers in the Banking sector.
Consequently, its m-cap rankings within the BFSI space improved to second from fifth in FY18. ICICIBC's share in total Private Banks' m-cap under our coverage rose to 20 per cent from 11 per cent in FY18. We expect the bank to deliver 28 per cent earnings CAGR over FY21-24E. This will enable its continued outperformance vs. its peers and further raise its m-cap contribution in the Private Banking space, in our view, the report said.
It has reported strong progression in NIMs, narrowing the gap with sector leaders. With a higher mix of floating rate loans and our view on a reversal in the rate cycle, we expect portfolio yields to remain steady, driving 20 per cent CAGR in NII over FY21-24E. NNPA declined to sub-1 per cent -- the lowest level since December 2014.
