Speaking to reporters here Padmaja Chunduru, Managing Director and CEO, said the net profit was impacted during the third quarter of the current fiscal due to higher non-performing assets (NPA), mainly due to the bank's exposure to IL&FS.

Banerjee called for a rethink of the "sudden move of mergers of PSU banks in a hasty manner, resulting in insurmountable difficulties to the people at large".
Banerjee urged the prime minister not to merge the United Bank of India with the Delhi headquartered Punjab National Bank and the Allahabad Bank with the Chennai headquartered Indian Bank.
"I'm deeply concerned to learn that two public sector banks headquartered in Kolkata are being merged with banks headquartered in Delhi and Chennai, respectively, without any consultation with the state government or with the management of these two banks," she said.
"The unilateral decision of merger of banks and threat of shifting headquarters from West Bengal will adversely affect the developmental momentum of the state," she said and added, "Kindly don't deprive Bengal like this".
The central government on August 30 announced merger of 10 PSU banks into four, following which the number of state-run banks will come down from 27 to 12, to ensure better management of capital and making a "stronger banks"
As per the announcement, Punjab National Bank, the Oriental Bank of Commerce and the United Bank would merge to become the second-largest PSB. Also, the Indian Bank and the Allahabad Bank are set to be amalgamated into one.
According to Finance Secretary Rajiv Kumar, the effective date of amalgamation will be decided on the decision of the individual banks, and in consultation with the Reserve Bank of India.
Consolidation among PSBs has been on the agenda of the NDA government since 2014. In 2017, the State Bank of India was merged with five of its associate banks and the Bharatiya Mahila Bank. In 2018, the government decided to merge the Bank of Baroda with the Vijaya Bank and the Dena Bank.
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) took the decision in consultation with the government to protect depositors' interest.
The RBI also superseded the board of Yes Bank, which has not been able to raise required capital for the last six months. It also appointed former Chief Financial Officer of SBI, Prashant Kumar as the administrator of Yes Bank.
"The Reserve Bank came to the conclusion that in the absence of a credible revival plan, and in public interest and the interest of the bank's depositors, it had no alternative but to apply to the central government for imposing a moratorium under Section 45 of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949," the RBI said in a statement late in the evening.
The statement said the bank management had indicated that it was in talks with various investors and they were likely to be successful. The bank was also engaged with a few private equity firms for exploring opportunities to infuse capital.
"These investors did hold discussions with senior officials of the Reserve Bank but for various reasons eventually did not infuse any capital.
"Since a bank and market-led revival is a preferred option over a regulatory restructuring, the Reserve Bank made all efforts to facilitate such a process and gave adequate opportunity to the bank's management to draw up a credible revival plan, which did not materialise," the statement said.
In the meantime, the bank was facing regular outflow of liquidity, the apex bank said, justifying its actions.
The actions come hours after sources said the government has approved a plan wherein State Bank of India (SBI) and other financial institutions would bailout Yes Bank.
If the plan is implemented, it would be the first major instance in many years where a private sector lender would be bailed out using public money.
In 2004, Global Trust Bank was amalgamated with Oriental Bank of Commerce and in 2006, IDBI Bank took over United Western Bank.
The curbs on Yes Bank come after similar action was taken against fraud-hit cooperative lender PMC Bank in September, where depositors are still in the lurch.
