SBI Joins List of World's Most Profitable Companies with Record ₹77,561 Cr Profit

State Bank of India (SBI), the country’s largest public sector bank, has reached a new milestone by becoming one of the world’s most profitable companies. With a net profit of US$9.2 billion (₹77,561 crore) in FY25, SBI now ranks 98th globally in terms of annual earnings, according to data from Bloomberg.

SBI Now Ranks with Global Giants

SBI’s performance places it alongside global leaders like Apple, Alphabet (Google’s parent), Microsoft, NVIDIA, and JPMorgan Chase. While Alphabet leads with US$111 billion in profit and Saudi Aramco follows at US$105 billion, SBI’s strong numbers mark India’s growing presence in global banking and business.

SBI is just behind Netflix and Cisco Systems on the list, making it the third Indian company after ONGC (2009) and Reliance Industries (2021) to enter the global top 100 profit-makers.

At 10:16 AM, SBI share price was up 0.57% and was trading at ₹806.25.

Strong Growth of SBI Over 5 Years

SBI’s profit growth has been driven by consistent performance. The bank recorded a 31% compound annual growth in net profit over the past five years. Its recent Q4 earnings beat street expectations, driven by strong recoveries and forex gains, even though operating costs were higher.

Conclusion

SBI’s entry into the global top 100 most profitable companies is a proud moment for India. With strong growth, positive analyst sentiment, and global recognition, the bank has shown that Indian institutions can compete with the best in the world.
