How has Banks - Private moved against NIFTY 500?
The line below covers up to 5.2 years and opens on the 5Y view; the buttons cut it shorter. Over the most recent two of them this sector is 42% ahead of NIFTY 500. Earnings across its companies grew 9% on average over the last four reported quarters. It has been ahead of NIFTY 500 on a rolling three-month view for 49 weeks running.
RS ↑49w · 14/18 >200d (−1) · 8/18 lead (−4) · EPS 16/18↑
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 18 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 - Private outperforming NIFTY 500?
Banks - Private has outperformed NIFTY 500 by 19.3% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a shortfall of 2.2%. 8 of 10 covered companies currently beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. Jammu and Kashmir Bank Ltd is the strongest against the sector itself at +10.8%.
Sector metric: — as of latest available · unclassified · direction unavailable.
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.
Bottom line
Banks - Private has outperformed NIFTY 500 by 19.3% over 52 weeks and 2.2% over 13 weeks. 8 of 10 covered companies beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, while 4 of 10 beat the sector itself. HDFC Bank Ltd leads with income of ₹3,51,818 crore, based on 10 of 10 comparable companies through Jun 2026.
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.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean
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. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led NIFTY 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led NIFTY 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

Market action
Federal Bank Ltd has the strongest one-year price move in Banks - Private at +62.7%. Jammu and Kashmir Bank Ltd leads on Mansfield relative strength against NIFTY at +16.8%. 8 of 10 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 313 weekly closes through 2026-09-25.
Every company, the sector's own index and NIFTY 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.
How far ahead of or behind NIFTY 500 each company has been running, measured against its own recent average of that comparison, so the flat line at zero IS NIFTY 500: above it the company is beating the market, below it the market is beating the company. It opens on one year.
The same measure taken against Banks - Private itself instead of the whole market, so the flat line at zero is the sector: above it the company is beating its own peers, which is the sharper test of the two. It opens on one year.
Banks - Private — the story behind the numbers
This is the written read behind the Banks - Private figures above — what is actually happening in the sector, in words, with the evidence each claim rests on. It is dated 22 Aug 2026. It also states what would change this read.
How old this read is: This read comes from our fortnightly sector read dated 22 Aug 2026 — 37 days old. The numbers above it are newer than the words here.
What would change this read
The October-November quarter calls break the named bottom: Axis prints a margin BELOW 3.5% after staking its credibility on that being the floor, while the sector's quarterly net margin rolls back under 21% and quarterly profit growth slows below 10% year-on-year.

Income Scale & Growth Durability
HDFC Bank Ltd has the highest Income among the 10 Banks - Private companies compared here, at ₹3,51,818 crore. ICICI Bank Ltd is next at ₹1,98,380 crore. Dhanlaxmi Bank Ltd has the highest Income growth at 21.7%, so level and change sit with different companies. 10 of 10 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.
What the numbers say: HDFC Bank Ltd is the scale leader at ₹3,51,818 crore, 77.3% ahead of ICICI Bank Ltd. Dhanlaxmi Bank Ltd's growth is 21.7% from a ₹1,683 crore base, with 15 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.
Investor read: HDFC Bank Ltd is the scale benchmark; Dhanlaxmi Bank Ltd is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.
This conclusion weakens if: HDFC Bank Ltd's growth falls below Dhanlaxmi Bank Ltd's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

Gross NPA — Leaders & Improvers
Yes Bank Ltd has the lowest Gross NPA among the 10 Banks - Private companies compared here, at 1.3%. Dhanlaxmi Bank Ltd is next at 1.8%. Bandhan Bank Ltd has the lowest GNPA change at -1.8 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 4 of 10 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.
What the numbers say: Yes Bank Ltd leads gross npa at 1.3%; Bandhan Bank Ltd leads gnpa change at -1.8 percentage points.
Investor read: Yes Bank Ltd sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current gnpa change signal.
Withheld from this chart: ICICI Bank Ltd (ICICIBANK) — its two data sources disagree by up to 7% on reported income across 15 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality
Jammu and Kashmir Bank Ltd has the lowest P/BV ÷ ROE among the 10 Banks - Private companies compared here, at 0.06×. Dhanlaxmi Bank Ltd is next at 0.11×. Dhanlaxmi Bank Ltd has the lowest P/BV at 0.77×, so level and change sit with different companies. 10 of 10 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.
What the numbers say: Jammu and Kashmir Bank Ltd has the lowest comparable P/BV ÷ ROE at 0.06×, 45.5% below Dhanlaxmi Bank Ltd. Only 10 of 10 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.
Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/bv signal.

What can make this comparison misleading?
This Banks - Private comparison names 7 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 10 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. 1 draws at least one figure from a second feed with too little overlap to cross-check. 3 have second-feed figures withheld because the two sources disagree.
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 draws at least one figure from a second data feed with too little overlapping history to cross-check against the primary source; it is marked unverified wherever that figure appears.
- 3 companies are 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.
How was this comparison built?
This comparison is built from the reported filings of 10 Banks - Private 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 2026-09-25. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.
How a second data feed is admitted, and what happens when it disagrees
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.
Banks - Private company comparison FAQs
These 26 answers restate the Banks - Private comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 10 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-09-25. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.

Banks - Private has outperformed NIFTY 500 by 19.3% over 52 weeks and 2.2% over 13 weeks. 8 of 10 covered companies beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, while 4 of 10 beat the sector itself.

The page compares up to 20 reported quarters per company for fundamentals, returns and valuation, ending Jun 2026. Missing observations remain blank rather than being estimated.
How is the 4-Factor Sector Score calculated?
The four visible contributions add directly: growth and earnings up to 35 points, capital efficiency up to 25, valuation up to 20, and relative strength up to 20. Missing or stale evidence moves only the affected contribution toward neutral.
Is there a Nifty Banks - Private index?
NSE India maintains Nifty indices for several broad sector categories — Nifty Bank, Nifty IT, Nifty Pharma and others — but not for every sub-sector grouping on this site. Whether or not an official Nifty index covers Banks - Private, this page builds its own equal-weight basket of 10 listed Banks - Private companies — one company, one vote, regardless of market value — so no single large company dominates the reading. Figures are as of Jun 2026.
Which are the best Banks - Private stocks in India?
Ranked by this page's four-factor score, Jammu and Kashmir Bank Ltd places first among 10 listed Banks - Private companies, followed by Dhanlaxmi Bank Ltd. 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 - Private stocks are listed in India?
This comparison covers 10 listed Banks - Private 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 - Private company is the biggest?
HDFC Bank Ltd is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month income of ₹3,51,818 crore, ahead of ICICI Bank Ltd at ₹1,98,380 crore. That covers 10 of 10 companies with comparable reporting through Jun 2026.
Which Banks - Private company makes the most profit?
HDFC Bank Ltd earns the most, at ₹82,512 crore of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 10 of 10 comparable companies. Yes Bank Ltd has the fastest profit growth at 37.8%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.
Which Banks - Private lender has the best asset quality?
Yes Bank Ltd reports the lowest gross NPA ratio at 1.3% — lower is better — across 4 of 10 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 - Private company earns the highest return on capital?
ICICI Bank Ltd leads on return on assets at 2.1%, across 9 of 10 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 - Private stock is the cheapest?
On price-to-book divided by return on equity — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Jammu and Kashmir Bank Ltd screens cheapest at 0.06×. All 10 companies qualify for the ratio comparison. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.
Which Banks - Private lender has the largest funding base?
Axis Bank Ltd has the largest reported deposit base at ₹13,71,173 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.
Is the Banks - Private sector beating the market?
Banks - Private has outperformed NIFTY 500 by 19.3% over the last 52 weeks and 2.2% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members. Inside the sector, 8 of 10 covered companies are beating the market on their own. Sector strength does not transfer evenly to every stock in it.
Which Banks - Private stock has the strongest price momentum?
Jammu and Kashmir Bank Ltd 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 - Private company scores highest for research priority?
Jammu and Kashmir Bank Ltd scores 61.7 out of 100 with 88% evidence confidence, from 17.2 points on growth and earnings, 16 on capital efficiency, 14.5 on valuation and 14 on relative strength. This ranks what deserves work next. It is not a buy recommendation, and management quality, catalysts and risk still need separate research.
How many Banks - Private companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?
It compares 10 listed companies over up to 20 reported quarters of fundamentals, ending Jun 2026, plus weekly price and relative-strength history. Membership is the full sector list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.
What is the total market cap of the Banks - Private sector?
The 10 Banks - Private companies on this page carry ₹31,37,818 crore of combined market value. HDFC Bank Ltd is the largest at ₹11,34,052 crore, about 36% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-09-28.
What is the Banks - Private sector's P/B ratio?
The median price-to-book ratio across the 10 Banks - Private companies on this page is 1.7×, measured on the 10 that report a comparable figure. A sector-level history for this multiple is not held here, so this is a cross-section of today, not a comparison with the sector’s own past. Figures are as of 2026-09-28.
How is the Banks - Private sector performing?
8 of the 10 covered Banks - Private companies are beating NIFTY 500 on Mansfield relative strength. The sector itself is 19.3% ahead of NIFTY 500 over 52 weeks on an equal-weight index of its current members. Readings are as of 2026-09-28.
Why are some values on this page blank?
A blank means that company did not report a comparable figure for that period, so nothing is shown. Missing observations are never interpolated, carried forward, or replaced with a similar-looking accounting line, and a company with missing evidence has its research score pulled toward neutral rather than being scored as bad.
Is this investment advice?
No. Every figure here is a deterministic calculation from reported company filings and market data, published for research. It contains no recommendation to buy or sell any security, does not account for your circumstances, and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed adviser.
