Canara Bank shares opened at Rs 124.65 on 15 Oct 2026 against a previous close of Rs 124.85 and fell more than 6% to Rs 116.80. Q2 FY27 net profit rose 8.4% to Rs 5,175 crore, NII was Rs 11,005 crore and net NPA 0.30%. The stock had risen about 5% on 14 Oct on the results. I could not find a stated reason or any brokerage target for the fall.<\/em><\/p>\n

Quick Answer<\/strong><\/p>\n

Canara Bank shares fell more than 6% to Rs 116.80 on 15 October 2026, a day after the stock rose about 5% on Q2 FY27 results that showed net profit up 8.4% to Rs 5,175 crore. The price is now about 2.8% below the Rs 120.20 close before the results (my calculation), so the whole post-result gain has been erased. The earnings call raised three concerns: a one-time ECL provision estimated at Rs 12,000 crore to Rs 15,000 crore, a CASA ratio of 29% against guidance of 30% to 32% and a fall in treasury income to Rs 153 crore. Whether to buy or sell depends on whether you see these as one-off adjustments or as a change in the bank’s earnings power.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Canara Bank is one of India’s largest public sector banks, and its Q2 FY27 numbers on 14 October 2026 looked strong on asset quality and loan growth. Canara Bank shares rose as much as 5% that day to about Rs 126.40 and closed near Rs 124.85, only to open lower the next morning and slide.<\/p>\n

This guide explains what happened to Canara Bank shares, the key numbers, what management said on the call, why the ECL provision matters and a balanced way to think about buy or sell. The reason for the 15 October fall was not stated in the sources I found, so where I offer a reading, I label it as mine.<\/p>\n

The headline question of buy or sell has no single answer, so the sections below separate facts from judgement.<\/p>\n
