In his report titled “Why RBI’s Favourite Enemy Kotak Bank Is Barred from Digital Banking Business?“, Maheshwari delves into the RBI’s recent actions against the bank. The analysis not only explores the causes and implications of RBI’s restrictions on Kotak Bank’s digital and credit card businesses but also highlights potential impacts on the bank’s overall business, valuations, and earnings. Maheshwari suggests that while the immediate financial impact may be limited to a maximum of -10% on earnings, the more significant concern is the reputational damage that could erode the premium valuations the bank once enjoyed. Despite these challenges, the report points out a path forward for Kotak Bank towards moderate growth.
