Ladies and gentlemen, good day, and welcome to the Q1 FY27 conference call hosted by Federal Bank. (Operator Instructions) Please note that this conference is being recorded.
I now hand the conference call over to Mr. Souvik Roy, Head, Investor Relations, The Federal Bank Limited. Thank you, and over to you, sir.
Thank you, Ikra. Good evening, everyone, and thank you for joining us. Before we begin, a small note on scheduling. I'm sure many of you remember the commitment we made some time ago that we would avoid holding earnings calls on Saturdays. We have stayed true to that commitment, and we intend to continue doing so.
Turning to the quarter. This has been by almost every measure we track, one of the strongest starts to a financial year in the bank's recent history. More importantly, these results have been delivered on the strength of our -- of the core franchise. I won't dwell on the headlines. We prefer to let the numbers speak for themselves.
