The fiscal year 2023-24 data further underscore MRB’s excellence across vital metrics such as Cash Deposit Ratio, Current and Savings Account (CASA) balances, and overall business volume.
Outstanding Profits with Lowest NPA
Mizoram Rural Bank (MRB) has delivered exceptional financial results in its March audit, boasting a net profit of Rs. 84.48 crore.

Leading Lender with Unmatched Branch Network
According to MRB officials, the bank has not only shown improvement across all fronts but has also achieved monumental feats. An official stated, “MRB operates 104 branches, nearly matching the total branches of other banks in the state, boasting the best branch networking among all banks.”
Mizoram Rural Bank was established on 27th September 1983 under the Regional Rural Bank Act 1976 and perhaps the only RRB in the country having a spread in all the districts and blocks of a state.
The bank has stupendously outperformed India’s largest lender, State Bank of India (SBI). The official revealed, “Mizoram Rural Bank has surpassed SBI, its sponsor bank, and holds the second-highest deposits in the state, after SBI.”
Describing it as a historic achievement, the official added, “For a gramin bank to outperform its sponsor bank on any growth parameter is truly remarkable.”
Mizoram Rural Bank’s achievements in net profit, NPA management, and branch network expansion not only solidify its position as a leader in rural banking but also inspire confidence in its continued success.
