On provisions, he said “Our GS3 (gross stage 3) are at an all-time low, provision coverage 70 percent and most importantly with the additional provisions we have, 2 percent of all standard assets is that additional provision that we are carrying. So total provision on the balance sheet is 6.5 percent versus GNPA ratio of 5.2 percent which gives us the confidence that whatever uncertainties have to come, we are getting well and ready for that.”
