Indian Overseas Bank saw its net profit drop 16 per cent to Rs 132 crore in the second quarter ended September 30, from Rs 158 crore in the comparable previous-year quarter. Total income during the quarter rose a little over 8 per cent to Rs 6,000 crore, from Rs 5,515 crore in the year-ago period.
M. Narendra, Chairman and Managing Director of the bank, attributed the drop in profits to the Rs 400-crore loss of treasury income ( due to the volatile rupee) and Rs 96-crore loss on transfer of SLR securities worth Rs 4,711 crore from AFS (available-for-sale) category to HTM (held-to-maturity) category.

On the recovery front, IOB managed cash recoveries of Rs 222.63 crore against Rs 198.58 crore in the same period last year.
