### Q1 FY26 Earnings (June Quarter)
HDFC Bank reported a **5% year-on-year rise in standalone net profit to Rs 19,060 crore** for the June quarter, with **NIM at 3.26%** [[3]](https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/business/banks/hdfc-bank-yet-to-announce-ceo-sashidhar-jagdishan-s-third-term-after-q1-board-meeting-13977406.html)[[8]](https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/business/banks/hdfc-bank-gnrc-in-process-of-considering-ceo-sashidhar-jagdishan-s-reappointment-13977516.html). This is a critical data point for the Prism thesis, as NIM compression was a core concern post-merger. The 3.26% NIM represents stabilization — though still below the bank's pre-merger highs (~4.0%+), it signals that the worst of the merger-induced NIM drag may be passing.
