Maintaining that the J&K Bank was also fast growing in rest of the country as well, the MD and CEO informed: “Our loan growth in rest of India for the FY 2022-23 was 20 percent thereby making up 32 percent of our total loanbook.”

Baldev Prakash was flanked by the J&K Bank’s Executive Director Sudhir Gupta, Visional Head (General Manager) Sunit Kumar and General Manager Government Business, Syed Rais Maqbool. GM Sahfat Rufai and GM Shujaat Andrabi were also present on the occasion.

“We have met market expectations and honoured the trust reposed in us by all our stakeholders,” he said and added that multiple reasons, particularly recovery of NPAs besides flat expenditure of the bank played major role in the achievement of highest ever profit.

Elaborating further, the MD and CEO said that ever since he assumed the responsibility, focus of the bank for the last five quarters has remained on devising and executing the bank’s strategies in the fast changing market scenario aiming at business growth, functional excellence and improved corporate governance.
