Today's sharp gains in PSU banks are on the hopes that non performing assets at the government owned banks may have peaked.

In fact, Bank of India reported a drop in non performing assets leading to sharp gains in other PSU banks.

Eagerly watched would be the results of Punjab National Bank and State Bank of India due in the next few weeks, which would throw light on whether there has been a remarkable turnaround in the asset quality of PSU banks.

In fact, even smaller PSU banking stocks like Dena Bank have rallied in line with the larger public sector banking units.
