Why ICICI Bank Is Bullish on Lending in 2025

ICICI Bank is ready for a promising year, whose latest financial statistics show a year-to-year solid loan increase of 14.7% in the first quarter (April-June 2024) of FY 25. Despite the strong competition from global economic challenges and other banks and non-banking financial companies (NBFCs), the bank's retail and commercial banking sector are holding speed. With the signs of interest rates cut by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), possibly the significance of interest rates by the beginning of 2026, ICICI is optimistic about the increase in debt demand, especially in housing, personal loans and small business financing.


ICICI Bank boosts loan growth as monetary easing sparks optimism.

How Monetary Easing Could Boost Borrowing

RBI has kept its repo rate stable at 6.5% till the August 2025 meeting, but stay around 4.8% of inflation and global trends—like the U.S. Federal Reserve’s 50-basis-point rate cut in September 2024—suggest a loosening monetary environment. This can mean cheap loans and better liquidity, which can increase demand for retail loans and working capital for small and medium enterprises (SMEs). ICICI Bank is excited about its home loan and credit card portfolio, which has seen a strong growth, which reflects the growing consumer belief.


What’s Holding Back Deposit Growth?

While the loans are increasing, deposits have been a little lagging a few years at 12.5%, which is a challenge for the whole banking sector. ICICI Bank is focusing on attracting low cost deposits to maintain its net interest margin, which remained steady at 4.4% in the first quarter of the financial year 25. The diverse loan book of the bank is helping it dealing with these pressures, but management believes that it will be important to promote the increase in the deposit amount to maintain the speed of lending in the financial year 26.

Can ICICI Keep the Momentum Going

Looking at the future, ICICI Bank has estimated a debt increase of 15-16% in the financial year 26, which is inspired by potential growth in corporate loans when improving rural and semi-urban demand and economic condition. The alert optimism of the bank stems from the expectations of increasing consumption with its strong retail portfolio and monetary relaxation. With focusing on a strong digital banking platform and SME, ICICI is in good condition to take advantage of the emerging economic scenario of India.
