State Bank of India filed its unaudited standalone and consolidated results for the quarter ended 30 September 2026 (July to September 2026, called Q2 FY27) with NSE on 3 November 2026, the day its Central Board approved them, along with a press release.

Published 5 November 2026 · Potoos Research Services

In short. For July to September 2026, SBI reported a standalone net profit of Rs 23,037.95 crore, up 14.3% from Rs 20,159.67 crore a year earlier. That profit includes a one-time gain of Rs 7,288.47 crore (before tax) from selling part of its stake in SBI Funds Management Limited. The gross NPA ratio was 1.39%, against 1.73% a year earlier.

The quarter in numbers

All figures are in Rs crore, as printed in the bank's results statement. For a bank, the main income line is interest earned, the interest it collects on loans and investments. Standalone means State Bank of India on its own. Consolidated adds its subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates. The change column is worked out by us.

Bad loans and capital

These lines are reported for the bank on its own (standalone), as at the last day of the quarter. The consolidated statement does not give them. For the ratio lines, the change is shown in percentage points.

Standalone, as at 30 September
Item30 Sep 202630 Sep 2025Change
Gross NPAs (Rs crore)72,529.0876,243.04−4.9%

Net NPAs, % of net advances0.36%0.42%−0.06 points
Capital adequacy ratio (Basel III)16.09%14.62%+1.47 points

The filing labels the two NPA ratio rows “% of gross NPAs” and “% of net NPAs”. A lower NPA ratio means a smaller share of loans has stopped being repaid.

The one-time gain in this quarter

The standalone profit includes an “exceptional item” of Rs 7,288.47 crore. In the bank's own words, from note 10 of the results:

“Pursuant to regulatory approval obtained from the Reserve Bank of India, the Bank has divested its 6.30% stake comprising 12,83,34,397 equity shares in SBI Funds Management Limited (a subsidiary) through pre-IPO and Offer for Sale under IPO. Consequently, the stake of Bank in SBI Funds Management Limited stands at 55.56% as on 30th September 2026.”

State Bank of India, results filing, 3 November 2026, note 10

The same quarter last year also had a one-time gain: Rs 4,593.22 crore (before tax) from selling a 13.18% stake in Yes Bank Ltd. So both quarters in the table above include a stake-sale gain. In the consolidated results the gains are Rs 6,879.26 crore this year and Rs 3,026.57 crore last year, after accounting adjustments the notes describe.

The notes also say the bank sold part of its stake in National Stock Exchange (post-tax profit of Rs 2,409.63 crore) and in ARCIL (Rs 81.46 crore) in September 2026. Under RBI rules these profits went straight to the capital reserve, not through the profit and loss account, so they are not in the profit figures on this page.

What the bank said

These are the bank's own words, from the press release it filed with NSE on 3 November 2026.

“Net Profit for Q2FY27 stands at ₹23,038 crores witnessing a growth of 14.28% YoY.”

State Bank of India press release, 3 November 2026

“Net Interest Income (NII) for Q2FY27 increased by 14.69% YoY.”

State Bank of India press release, 3 November 2026

“Gross NPA Ratio at 1.39% improved by 34 bps YoY.”

State Bank of India press release, 3 November 2026

The press release rounds to the nearest crore: Rs 23,037.95 crore in the results is ₹23,038 crore. Net interest income is interest earned minus interest expended. From the standalone statement that is Rs 1,32,018.55 crore minus Rs 82,875.70 crore, or Rs 49,142.85 crore for the quarter.

Dates

  • Central Board meeting: 3 November 2026 (started 10:00 am, the results agenda concluded 1.40 pm). The board approved the results that day.
  • Filed with NSE: 3 November 2026, with the press release the same day.
  • Auditors: the bank's cover letter says the Limited Review Report of the Statutory Central Auditors “contains unmodified opinion”.
  • Dividend: none declared in this filing.
What these words mean

Interest earned: the interest a bank collects on its loans, investments and money placed with RBI and other banks. It is a bank's version of revenue.

Standalone and consolidated: standalone covers State Bank of India alone. Consolidated adds the group: the filing says 27 subsidiaries, 5 joint ventures and 12 associates, including insurance and fund management businesses.

NPA (non-performing asset): a loan on which repayments have stopped for a set period, usually 90 days. Gross NPA is the full amount of such loans. Net NPA is what is left after the money the bank has already set aside (provisions) for them.

Capital adequacy ratio: the bank's own capital as a share of its risk-weighted loans and assets. RBI sets a minimum level.

Exceptional item: a large one-time gain or cost, shown on its own line so it does not mix with the regular business.

Rs crore: one crore is one hundred lakh, or ten million rupees. The filing reports in crore, so this page does too.
