Canara Bank Q2 profit rises 8.4% to ₹5,175 crore; total business passes ₹30 lakh crore

Canara Bank reported a standalone net profit of ₹5,175 crore for July to September 2026, up 8.4% from ₹4,774 crore a year earlier. Its deposits plus loans stood at about ₹30.7 lakh crore on 30 September 2026.

Canara Bank, a government-owned bank, reported a standalone net profit of ₹5,175 crore for the quarter ended 30 September 2026 (July to September, the second quarter of the financial year 2026-27, or Q2 FY27). That is 8.4% more than the ₹4,774 crore it reported for the same quarter a year earlier. In a separate provisional update to the stock exchanges, the bank said its global business, meaning all its deposits plus all its loans in India and abroad, was ₹30,70,928 crore on 30 September 2026, which is more than ₹30 lakh crore. Both sets of figures are as reported by the bank and carried by news outlets.

Key terms

  • Net profit is the profit left after all expenses, provisions and tax.
  • Standalone means the bank’s own accounts only, without its subsidiaries.
  • Net interest income (NII) is the interest a bank earns on loans and investments minus the interest it pays on deposits and borrowings.
  • Operating profit is profit before money is set aside for bad loans and other contingencies.
  • Gross NPA is the share of loans on which borrowers have stopped paying on time (a non-performing asset). Net NPA is the same share after subtracting the money the bank has set aside against those loans.
  • Global business is global deposits plus global advances (loans). One lakh crore is ₹1,00,000 crore, or ₹1 trillion.

Q2 FY27 results

Basis of these figures

The bank’s results filing on BSE and NSE could not be opened for this article, so the profit, income, NII, NPA and ratio figures are attributed to the Indian Masterminds and Business Standard reports of 14 October 2026, and the deposit, loan and business figures to the bank’s provisional business update as reproduced by PSU Connect. The results report gives slightly different deposit and loan totals (₹16,97,305 crore and ₹13,75,060 crore, with growth of 13.13% and 19.46%) from the business update; the table above uses the business update. Percentage changes marked as ours are arithmetic on the reported figures.
