Bandhan Bank’s strong Q4 profit failed to impress investors, as the stock declined nearly 3 per cent in intraday trade on the BSE on Friday, May 2.
Bandhan Bank shares opened at ₹168.05, compared to the previous close of ₹165.65, and rose nearly 5 per cent to an intraday high of ₹173.35 before erasing all gains and falling almost 3 per cent to hit an intraday low of ₹161.10.

On April 30, Bandhan Bank reported a solid 483 per cent year-on-year (YoY) jump in its Q4FY25 net profit to ₹318 crore, compared with ₹55 crore posted at the end of the same quarter last year.
However, its net revenue dropped 30 per cent YoY to ₹3,456 crore for the quarter under review.
