Public sector banks are borrowing more to fund lending expansion. Deposits are not keeping pace with credit growth for these banks. Private banks show stronger deposit growth and are gaining market share. This trend raises concerns about funding sustainability for state-owned lenders. Abundant system liquidity currently cushions the impact of these shifts.
