Provisioning for bad loans stood at ₹3,865 crore, up 14% from last year’s ₹3,389 crore, indicating a cautious stance on asset quality amidst macroeconomic uncertainties. The bank maintained a healthy capital adequacy ratio (CAR) of 18.2%, ensuring strong risk coverage.
Overall balance sheet growth remained robust, with total deposits rising 13% to ₹13.15 lakh crore and advances growing 12% to ₹12.1 lakh crore. Amidst global and regional economic challenges, HDFC Bank’s performance highlights its resilience and commitment to sustainable growth.
