KRBL reported a 73.2% YoY increase in standalone PAT to ₹260.63 Cr for Q1 FY27, despite a 5.6% decline in revenue from operations to ₹1,495.86 Cr.

The company has fixed September 18, 2026, as the record date for the final dividend of FY26.

Baa2 Rating Assigned by Moody's Following INR 26,000 Cr Investment by Emirates NBD
Moody's has assigned a first-time Baa2 issuer rating to RBL Bank with a stable outlook, positioning it one notch above India's sovereign rating (Baa3).
