Banks - PSU: State Bank of India owns the largest revenue base; Bank of Maharashtra has the fastest current growth.
Nifty Banks - PSU Index — Constituents & Performance
The Banks - PSU companies below are the listed Indian Banks - PSU universe this page tracks — the same constituent set people search for as the Nifty Banks - PSU index. Every figure is equal-weighted across those companies, so one large constituent cannot set the reading. Each number carries its own as-of date.
The sector itself · before any single company
How has Banks - PSU moved against NIFTY 500?
The line below covers 5.1 years. Over the most recent two of them this sector is 12% behind NIFTY 500. Earnings across its companies grew 14% on average over the last four reported quarters.

Participation is not spreading downward this month; the larger companies are still carrying most of it.
Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the sector line is an equal-weighted index of its 13 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the sector taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

Is Banks - PSU outperforming NIFTY 500?
The 52-week comparison of Banks - PSU against NIFTY 500 is not available from the current market series. 5 of 13 covered companies currently beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. Bank of Maharashtra is the strongest against the sector itself at +21.9%. Readings are as of 2026-07-19.

The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.
Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.

4-Factor Sector Score
An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.
Bank of Maharashtra has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 100% evidence confidence.
Union Bank of India looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.
Union Bank of India has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.
Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. Financial companies use P/BV÷ROE and asset quality; PEG, industrial OPM and ROCE are excluded.
Decision use: Acceleration candidate, not a confirmed leader: earnings are strong but sector-relative strength is -11.8% and the one-year return is -14.9%. Do not upgrade until sector-relative strength is above zero and another reported period confirms growth.
Decision use: Cheap but unconfirmed: require improving earnings before treating the valuation as an opportunity.

State Bank of India has the highest Income among the 13 Banks - PSU companies compared here, at ₹5,15,235 crore. Bank of Baroda is next at ₹1,36,547 crore. Bank of Maharashtra has the highest Income growth at 15.8%, so level and change sit with different companies. 13 of 13 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.
What the numbers say: State Bank of India is the scale leader at ₹5,15,235 crore, 277.3% ahead of Bank of Baroda. Bank of Maharashtra's growth is 15.8% from a ₹30,262 crore base, with 20 reported observations in the 20-quarter window.

Before the conclusion · check the blind spots
What can make this comparison misleading?
This Banks - PSU comparison names 6 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 13 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. 1 has second-feed figures withheld because the two sources disagree. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.
Keep these limits visible
A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
A high ROE can be manufactured with leverage. Read it beside ROA and asset quality.
The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
Banks and lenders are not forced through operating-margin or ROCE comparisons; missing lender-specific fields remain visibly missing.
1 company is missing from the second-feed metrics by decision, not by absence: the two sources disagree, so nothing from the second is drawn. Read those rows as narrower evidence, never as a weaker business.
09 · the complete set
Which companies are included?
All 13 companies in the canonical Banks - PSU membership are listed below, largest market value first — nothing is silently dropped, even where a company reports too little to rank. The charts above default to a selective view; this register is the complete set, with each company's own latest reporting date beside it.
AHEAD means the company is beating the index by 5% or more over three months. LAGGING, FUNDAMENTALS UP means it is 20% or more behind over a year while its trailing twelve-month earnings grew 20% or more. Both rules are fixed and applied the same way in every sector.
How each company's sources stand: 1 of 13 companies has a second data feed that is known to disagree with the primary source, so nothing from it is drawn: State Bank of India (SBIN) — its two data sources disagree by up to 40% on reported income across 14 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld.
Evidence and freshness
How was this comparison built?
This comparison is built from the reported filings of 13 Banks - PSU companies, normalized to a common ₹ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-07-24. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.
FundamentalsThrough Jun 2026 · up to 20 quarters per company
Market dataThrough 2026-07-24 · weekly price and relative-strength history
Derived metricsGrowth, changes, CAPEX intensity, net debt, guarded PEG and P/BV÷ROE are calculated only when their inputs are comparable.
Score confidenceMissing and stale evidence reduces confidence and pulls the 0–100 research-priority score toward neutral.
A second feed is read only after its reported income is matched against the primary source on at least three overlapping periods. Where the two agree the figures fill silently. Where there is too little shared history to compare, the figures are still drawn — they are the only evidence there is — and marked ⚠ unverified everywhere they appear. Where the two are known to disagree, nothing from the second feed is drawn and the affected company is named under the chart it is missing from. Every company's standing is listed in the register above.
These 18 answers restate the Banks - PSU comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 13 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-07-24. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.
What is the Nifty Banks - PSU index?
The Nifty Banks - PSU index tracks India's listed Banks - PSU companies as a single basket. This page follows the same 13 companies and equal-weights them, so every company's weekly return counts once whatever it is worth, and the reading belongs to the Banks - PSU sector rather than to its largest constituent. Figures are as of Jun 2026.
Which are the best Banks - PSU stocks in India?
Ranked by this page's four-factor score, Bank of Maharashtra places first among 13 listed Banks - PSU companies, followed by Indian Overseas Bank. That is a ranking of published data — earnings, quality, valuation and market behaviour as of Jun 2026 — and not a recommendation; Sector Alpha is not registered with SEBI as an investment adviser.
How many Banks - PSU stocks are listed in India?
This comparison covers 13 listed Banks - PSU companies in India, each above the size floor the site applies, with 20 quarters of reported figures per company where the filings exist. The full ranked list is on this page, as of Jun 2026.
Which Banks - PSU company is the biggest?
State Bank of India is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month income of ₹5,15,235 crore, ahead of Bank of Baroda at ₹1,36,547 crore. That covers 13 of 13 companies with comparable reporting through Mar 2026.
Which Banks - PSU company is growing fastest?
Bank of Maharashtra has the fastest income growth at 15.8% year on year, across 13 of 13 comparable companies. Fast growth off a small base is not the same as proven scale — check whether the rate holds across several quarters on the chart above before treating it as a trend.
Which Banks - PSU company makes the most profit?
State Bank of India earns the most, at ₹86,666 crore of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 13 of 13 comparable companies. Indian Overseas Bank has the fastest profit growth at 51.8%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.
Which Banks - PSU lender has the best asset quality?
Bank of Maharashtra reports the lowest gross NPA ratio at 1.4% — lower is better — across 6 of 13 lenders. Read the direction as well as the level: a rising NPA ratio off a low base can matter more than a high but falling one.
Which Banks - PSU company earns the highest return on capital?
Bank of Maharashtra leads on return on assets at 2%, across 13 of 13 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.
Which Banks - PSU stock is the cheapest?
On price-to-book divided by return on equity — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Bank of Baroda screens cheapest at 0.06×. Only 13 of 13 companies pass the comparability guard, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.
Which Banks - PSU lender has the largest funding base?
Punjab National Bank has the largest reported deposit base at ₹17,38,908 crore. For lenders, deposits and borrowings are operating inputs rather than leverage, so they are read against asset quality and returns instead of as debt.
Which Banks - PSU stock has the strongest price momentum?
Bank of Maharashtra has the strongest relative strength against NIFTY 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.
Which Banks - PSU company scores highest for research priority?
Bank of Maharashtra scores 79.4 out of 100 with 100% evidence confidence, from 29.3 points on growth and earnings, 24.3 on capital efficiency, 10.2 on valuation and 15.6 on relative strength.
