Bank of Baroda is yet another bank that has reported a weakish set of numbers for the quarter. Results so far from PSU banks have been mixed with PNB seeing slight improvement in asset quality, while Union Bank has seen a slight deterioration.

Analysts expect PSU banking stocks continue to perform poorly on the asset quality front and the shares have been hammered down in the last few months.
