Elevated balance transfers reducing book growth
BT outs doubled to INR 4,000 crore in Q2 (vs INR 2,000 crore run rate), causing approximately INR 2,000 crore of book erosion. While October data shows normalization, any further rate differential with PSU banks (offering 7.35-7.50%) could trigger renewed outflows at the 8% rewriting rate floor.
