During the fourth quarter of FY24, the bank’s disbursements increased to ₹2,340 crore, a 39% YoY improvement from the same period last year. For the full fiscal year FY24, disbursements totaled over ₹6,900 crore, a 36% YoY rise compared to FY23, driven by momentum in Vikas Loan and Retail Assets disbursements.

Suryoday Small Finance Bank emphasized its commitment to building a strong retail liability book, with improvements in the CASA ratio and retail deposits. Despite a decline in shares following its listing in March 2021, the bank has shown significant upward momentum, with shares currently trading 142% higher than their lowest point in June 2022.
However, the shares are still 38% below their IPO price of ₹305, indicating room for further growth. Investors are advised to consult with experts before making any investment decisions.
