# Fino Payments Bank Posts Rs 14 Crore Loss in Q1 2026-08-13T17:03:07+00:00 | Business & Economy | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Fino Payments Bank posted a net loss of Rs 13.7 crore in Q1 FY27, swinging from a profit of Rs 17.8 crore in the same quarter last year. Total income fell 32.3% year-on-year to Rs 306.9 crore, driven by a 40.2% drop in fee and commission income from CASA, micro-ATM, AePS, and other services. Sequentially, the bank had reported a profit of Rs 7.1 crore in the March quarter. Despite the loss, interest income rose 18.4% to Rs 72.2 crore, and total expenditure (excluding provisions) declined 25.2% to Rs 320.6 crore. The payments bank's reliance on fee-based revenue remains a key factor in its earnings volatility. ## Coverage - inc42.com Tags: banking results, Fino Payments Bank, fintech, net loss, payments bank, Q1 earnings Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/fino-payments-bank-posts-rs-14-crore-loss-in-q1/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
