Interestingly Pralay Mondal, MD & CEO of CSB Bank told CNBC-TV18 last month that CSB Bank does not want gold loans to constitute a major part of its loan book by the end of this decade. He added that by FY30, most of the bank's loan book would come via retail, even as gold remains an integral part.
During the April-June quarter of the current financial year, gold loans constituted nearly 42 percent of the bank's overall advances and increased 26.3 percent year-on-year. On the other hand, the overall retail loans declined 14 percent from the same period last year.
