State Bank of India (SBI) reported a 10% year-on-year (YoY) decline in standalone net profit to Rs 18,642.59 crore for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to Rs 20,698.35 crore in Q4FY24. The drop was primarily due to higher provisioning during the quarter.
Net Interest Income (NII) rose slightly by 2.6% YoY to Rs 42,775 crore in Q4FY25, up from Rs 41,655 crore in the same period last year. Operating profit stood at Rs 31,286 crore versus Rs 28,747 crore in the year-ago quarter. However, provisions surged to Rs 6,441 crore, significantly higher than Rs 1,609 crore last year, including Rs 3,964 crore for NPAs.
Asset quality improved marginally. Gross NPA ratio declined to 1.82% from 2.24%, while Net NPA fell to 0.47% from 0.57% YoY. Dividend announcement
Alongside its Q4 results, the Central Board of the bank declared a dividend of Rs 15.90 per equity share (1590%) for the financial year ended March 31, 2025. The record date for determining eligible shareholders is May 16, 2025, and the dividend payment will be made on May 30, 2025. Fundraising plans
SBI has also announced plans to raise equity capital up to Rs 25,000 crore during FY26 via modes such as Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP), Follow-on Public Offer (FPO), or preferential issue. The capital will be raised in one or more tranches, subject to requisite shareholder and regulatory approvals.

India's manufacturing PMI slips to 3-month low in May, employment hits record high
India's manufacturing sector remained in expansion mode in May 2025, although momentum softened compared to April, according to the HSBC India Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) released by S&P Global. The PMI dipped to 57.6 in May from 58.2 in April — a three-month low — signaling a slower pace of growth in output and new orders. Despite the decline, the reading remained well above the neutral 50-mark and its long-run average of 54.1. According to the HSBC report, while domestic and international demand continued to support business activity, cost inflation, intense market competition, and concerns surrounding the India-Pakistan conflict acted as drags on growth. Manufacturers reported notable increases in selling prices, driven by higher input costs — the steepest seen in nearly a year. One standout in the data was employment. May witnessed the highest rate of job creation since the survey began, with permanent roles rising significantly. Firms also ramped up their input purchases to meet future demand, even as inventory of finished goods fell for the sixth consecutive month. New export orders rose strongly, with firms citing better demand from the US, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. Despite the challenges, sentiment for future output remained robust, driven by marketing efforts and fresh customer enquiries.

I think it's time to start planning for people in my position: Glenn Maxwell announces ODI retirement
By Aditya Bhagchandani Published on June 2, 2025, 11:55 IST Australian allrounder Glenn Maxwell has announced his retirement from One Day Internationals (ODIs), bringing an end to a vibrant career that spanned over a decade. Maxwell, 35, made the decision to shift his full focus to T20 cricket, with an eye on the 2026 T20 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka. Maxwell played 149 ODIs for Australia between 2012 and 2025, amassing 3990 runs at an explosive strike rate of 126.70 and an average of 33.81. With the ball, he took 77 wickets with his offspin and was also a key fielder, taking 91 catches. His most iconic moment came during the 2023 World Cup, where he scored a sensational unbeaten 201 against Afghanistan—widely hailed as one of the greatest ODI innings of all time. The Victorian was part of Australia's victorious World Cup campaigns in 2015 and 2023 and leaves the format with four centuries and 23 fifties to his name. Reflecting on his journey, Maxwell told The Final Word Podcast , 'I was just proud to be playing a couple of games for Australia… I always said I wouldn't hold on to a spot selfishly. It's time to let others build towards 2027.' Cricket Australia confirmed the decision, noting Maxwell's plans to focus on the Big Bash League and international T20 commitments. George Bailey, Chair of Selectors and former captain, praised Maxwell's legacy: 'He will be remembered as one of ODI cricket's most dynamic players. His commitment to Australia and ability to deliver on the big stage has been second to none.' Maxwell's last ODI appearance came earlier this year in the Champions Trophy against India. He is currently sidelined with a leg injury that ruled him out of the IPL.
