Bandhan Bank Q4 Results: Bandhan Bank share price surged 10% to hit a 52-week high of ₹196.10 on April 29 after the private sector lender reported a strong performance for Q4FY26, driven by lower provisions and improving asset quality, even as margins remained under pressure.
The sharp move in the stock reflects improving investor sentiment around the bank’s asset quality trajectory and balance sheet growth.
