Profit is the determinant factor of success of business and means of its survival and growth. This paper focuses on the performance of selected public sector banks in terms of ratios. The study covers a period of five years and applied various profitability ratios like net profit margin, operating profit margin, return on assets, return on equity and net interest margin. Profitability is a measure of efficiency and control; it indicates effectiveness of business operations. Profitability ratios provide useful insights into the financial health and performance of a company. It was found out that performance of SBI was satisfactory except in the year of 2017-18, though net interest margin ratio was positive in that year also. In case of BOB, net interest margin ratio was satisfactory in all the years but other ratios were negative in the year of 2015-16 and 2017-18.
