Bandhan Bank Ltd Share Price – NSE  / BSE

Banks, Small Cap

The brokerage set a target price of Rs 175 per share, implying an upside potential of nearly 23% from the stock?s previous closing price of Rs 142.46. The domestic brokerage said that the firm?s Q3 results were more or less in line with estimates. ?Bandhan has undergone a long-drawn NPA cycle, which significantly impacted its growth and profitability profile. As a result, the bank delivered a tepid 8% avg. RoE over the past five years,? it said

The brokerage expects the bank?s operating performance to recover in the coming quarters, with asset quality regaining normalcy and margins stabilizing

Another domestic brokerage noted that the company?s net profit missed its estimate despite strong operating performance, primarily due to elevated credit cost which was expected to moderate during the quarter following the NPA sale.

However, given the current valuation of 0.7x FY28 P/B, the brokerage believes that the downside potential in the stock looks limited. Accordingly, it upgraded the stock to ?Add?, and increased its target price to Rs 160 apiece.
