Abstract

This research aims to identify the influence of FI on banks’ traditional profitability measures and stock returns after the introduction of the PMJDY initiative. The study uses data from 25 banks from 2014 to 2021. The research uses factor analysis and regression models. The findings uncovered a connection between FI and bank profitability. There is indeed a positive correlation between FI, RoE, and RoA; nevertheless, this correlation does not meet the criteria for statistical significance. Even though this is the case, FI and NiM are negatively correlated with one another, and this link is statistically significant. One could say that the relationship between financial institutions and the stock market was unfavorable and inconsequential. This study examines the influence of PMJDY FI variables on the performance of the Indian banking industry following the implementation of the PMJDY scheme. This study addresses a gap in the existing finance literature by creating a FI index. The index evaluates various parameters, such as the number of branches, ATMs, beneficiary accounts, deposits, and debit card issuance.
