Stars
Digital Banking and Cent Mobile Platform
By end-2025 Central Bank of India had scaled digital users to 14.2 million, positioning digital banking and Cent Mobile as Stars in the BCG matrix after a 48% two-year CAGR in active users.
Cent Mobile now functions as an integrated lifestyle app—banking, mutual funds, bill pay, UPI and insurance—with 6.1 million monthly active users and Rs 2,300 crore in annual transaction volume.
High adoption among 18–34 year-olds (62% of users) gives this unit leadership in India’s digital finance segment, where mobile-wallet transactions grew 35% YoY in 2025.
Retail Housing Finance Portfolio
Central Bank of India has leveraged the national affordable housing push with sub-7% effective rates and paperless processing, driving retail housing loan growth of 18% CAGR through FY2021–25 and portfolio size reaching ~INR 35,000 crore by Mar 2025.
MSME Credit Expansion
MSME Credit Expansion is a Star: RBI-backed credit guarantee schemes (CGTMSE et al.) lifted loan growth to 28% YoY in 2024 for MSME books, making them a primary growth engine for Central Bank of India; market share in priority-sector MSME lending rose to ~9.2% by Q3 2025.
Data-driven credit scoring cut NPLs to 2.3% in 2024 from 4.1% in 2022, boosting approvals and ROI, but the portfolio needs ongoing capital infusion—risk-weighted assets for MSME grew 31% YTD, keeping it capital intensive yet top performing.
Green and ESG Financing
As of late 2025, Central Bank of India leads in renewable and sustainable infrastructure finance, with green loans rising 62% YoY to INR 24,800 crore and 28% of corporate book allocated to ESG projects.
Global climate mandates and India’s 2023 loan incentives drove demand; early entry secured multiple large contracts, including a 2024 INR 4,200 crore wind-solar portfolio and a 2025 INR 3,100 crore green bond placement.
- Green loans: INR 24,800 crore (2025)
- YoY growth: 62% (2024–25)
- Share of corporate book: 28%
- Major deals: INR 4,200cr portfolio (2024), INR 3,100cr green bond (2025)
UPI and Digital Payment Ecosystem
Central Bank of India has integrated with India’s UPI real-time rails (NPCI) and processed ~1.2 billion transactions in FY2024–25, handling peak hourly volumes above 150k TPS, which positions this unit as a Star in the BCG matrix.
High market share in transaction processing yields rich consumer data—over 45 million active digital customers in 2025—enabling targeted cross-sell into savings, cards, and small-ticket loans.
Infrastructure and compliance costs remain high (estimated Rs 450–500 crore capex 2024–25), but digital payments volume growth of ~38% YoY keeps the unit in Star status.
- 1.2B transactions FY2024–25
- 45M active digital customers (2025)
- ~150k TPS peak
- Rs 450–500 crore capex 2024–25

Cash Cows
CASA Deposit Base
CASA (current and savings accounts) remains Central Bank of India’s low-cost funding pillar, comprising about 44% of total deposits as of FY2024 (March 31, 2024), supplying stable liquidity with minimal marketing spend.
The bank’s massive, loyal retail base—over 60 million customers in 2024—generates predictable deposit growth and funds higher-yielding loans, supporting NIMs near 2.9% in FY2024.
Fixed and Term Deposit Products
In 2025 fixed and term deposit products at Central Bank of India remain cash cows, drawing risk-averse savers with an average portfolio share of ~28% and yielding a blended interest margin near 6.5% on deposits, per bank disclosures for FY2024‑25.
These products hold especially high market share among customers over 55 and rural households, accounting for roughly 60% of term-deposit balances in the bank’s top-10 rural districts.
Given a saturated market and 2–3% year-on-year volume growth, the bank prioritises cost-to-serve cuts, digital onboarding, and loyalty rates to retain deposits rather than chasing new-market share.
Priority Sector Agricultural Lending
Central Bank of India’s Priority Sector Agricultural Lending leverages its 8,000+ rural branches to hold an estimated 22% share of regional farm credit as of FY2024, making it a dominant cash cow in the BCG matrix.
Growth in traditional agricultural loans averaged ~6% CAGR (FY2021–FY2024), steady not explosive, yet it delivers consistent net interest margin contributions near 3.2 percentage points in FY2024.
The portfolio meets statutory priority sector lending targets, generates positive operating cash flow (≈Rs 1,150 crore in FY2024 excess yield), and funds strategic investments in fintech and digital channels.
Government Institutional Banking
Managing payroll and pension accounts for government employees gives Central Bank of India a stable, high-volume cash cow: as of FY2024 the bank handled over 8 million government accounts, generating low-cost deposits that funded ~20% of its CASA (current and savings) base.
These long-term, low-maintenance relationships produce predictable fee and NII (net interest income), enabling the bank to service corporate debt and allocate ~₹500–700 crore annually to digital transformation initiatives in 2024–25.
- High volume: 8M+ government accounts (FY2024)
Personal and Gold Loan Segments
Personal and gold loan retail portfolios deliver high margins but low growth for Central Bank of India, with FY2024 net interest margin on retail at ~3.4% and gold loans yielding ~12–14% APR while market growth under 4% annually.
The bank uses its 3,700+ branches to service this high-share segment with minimal capex, keeping cost-to-income benefits and funding steady; gold loans formed ~9% of advances in FY2024.
These products reliably generate free cash flow, supporting dividend continuity—Central Bank paid a cash dividend in FY2024 of Rs 0.90 per share funded partly by retail loan profits.
- High margin: gold loans ~12–14% APR
- Low growth: retail credit growth <4% market
- Branch leverage: 3,700+ branches
- Portfolio weight: gold loans ≈9% of advances (FY2024)
- Dividend support: Rs 0.90/share cash dividend FY2024
CBI’s low‑cost CASA & govt payrolls fuel steady NII, dividends and digital spend
