Authors: Jordan NEW DELHI: ICICI Bank rose 2 per cent on Monday ahead of its March quarter results.

The stock gained even as some brokerages expect the lender to report 30-35 per cent drop in profit. The stock went up 1.59 per cent to hit a high of Rs 287.45 on the BSE. Motilal Oswal Securities sees 32 per cent annual drop in ICICI bottom line, predicting a slide of 1.6 per cent in net interest income (NII).

Percentage of net NPA may firm up to 5.20 per cent, from 4.90 per cent a year earlier. Systematix Shares Stocks expects a 35.70 per cent year-on-year (yoy) decline in standalone net profit at Rs 1,301.90 crore for ICICI Bank.
