Private sector banks are expected to post stronger earnings growth over the next two years compared to public sector banks despite similar loan growth trends, according to a report by Antique Stock Broking. The report stated that loan growth for both private and PSU banks is expected to converge at around 14 per cent year-on-year during FY26-28. However, Antique Stock Broking said private banks are likely to deliver significantly better earnings performance during the period due to relatively stable margins and lower earnings risks.
