The IAD submitted its final report on May 20, 2025, revealing key discrepancies in the bank’s financial reporting related to its microfinance vertical. These misstatements span fee income, interest calculations, and unexplained entries in the asset ledger. The affected transactions were corrected in the fourth quarter of FY24–25.
The earlier March 2025 disclosures about accounting errors in the bank’s derivative book had already indicated a potential hit of 2.35% to its net worth, valued at Rs.1,979 crore as of June 30, 2024.
Category | Misreported Amount (Rs. crore) | Period Covered |
Fee Income (Microfinance) | 172.58 | FY24–25 (Q1 to Q3) |
Interest Income (Microfinance) | 674.00 | FY24–25 (Q1 to Q3) |
Other Assets (Unsubstantiated) | 595.00 | As of March 2025 |
Total | 1,441.58 |

Following these disclosures, the board appointed a Committee of Executives to oversee daily operations after the resignation of top leadership. The committee will function until a new Managing Director and CEO are appointed, or for up to three months.
The series of accounting lapses has intensified investor focus, with IndusInd Bank share price reacting negatively to recent announcements. The revelations are expected to influence investor sentiment in the near term. Analysts anticipate further volatility in IndusInd Bank share price as the bank addresses systemic gaps and restores financial transparency.
With regulatory reviews likely to follow, sustained investor confidence may depend on the effectiveness of internal reforms and accountability measures. The recent developments mark a critical period for the private lender, as it works to stabilise operations and rebuild trust—factors that could eventually impact the IndusInd Bank share price trajectory.
