ICICI Bank is set to announce its April-June quarter results for fiscal 2024-25 (Q1FY25) on Saturday, July 27 (today), after reporting a solid performance in the previous quarter led by improved asset quality and credit growth.
D-Street analysts and domestic brokerages have estimated a decent and steady growth for India’s second-largest lender by market cap in the quarter under review over loan growth and enhanced asset quality.
