Risk reward still favours PSU bank valuations...

According to the ICICI Direct, A stellar run-up by PSU banks had all eyes glued towards them. We tried to analyse the factors leading to the rally and what is in store ahead. Bank Nifty gained ~28% whereas PSU banks were up 74% in the last six months (as of December 21, 2022). Post the phase of significantly higher GNPA, treasury MTM losses, lower capital & sub-par growth, there has been a turnaround with comfort on asset quality; reversal of treasury losses, credit growth pick-up and just adequate capital position for most of them. Despite the decent rally, valuation still look reasonable for PSU banks. 

ICICI Direct said, "Going ahead, the RoA for large PSU banks is seen inching towards 0.8-1% gradually. With a recovery in growth and stable asset quality, PSU banks are set for a further re-rating. Large PSU banks (SBI, BoB, Canara Bank) are trading at ~0.8-1x P/BV, which paves the way for a further re-rating as peak valuations remain at ~1.2-1.5x in FY12-14. Mid-sized and small banks, currently trading at 0.5-0.7x P/BV, touched ~1x then. We remain positive on PSU banks, with upsides expected to continue in the medium term horizon."
