HDFC Bank''s asset quality continues to be stable: Senior bank official

Asset quality of the country's largest credit card issuer HDFC Bank continues to be stable even as many of its peers are facing challenges, a senior official said on Thursday. The bank is witnessing "good traction" on the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) for credit cards, its head for payments business and consumer finance Parag Rao told reporters here. "We have not seen any rise (in defaults) or any stress in our portfolio. We continue to be stable even as we get out of the pandemic," Rao said, speaking on the sidelines of the launch of a co-branded credit card with Marriott Bonvoy. Recently, there have been concerns over high growth in unsecured credit card portfolios by many players in the industry, which has also led to speculation about regulatory moves to take care of the concerns.

HDFC Bank merger helped boost credit offtake to 19.7%: Care Ratings

The merger of HDFC with HDFC Bank has pushed credit offtake by an incremental 500 basis points to 19.7 per cent for the fortnight to July 28, excluding which the system-wide lending growth was only 14.7 per cent on-year, according to a report. The largest pure-play mortgage lender HDFC merged with its own banking subsidiary on July 1 in a record USD 40 billion all stocks merger, creating a banking behemoth with a balance sheet of over Rs 23 lakh crore. Credit offtake continued to show robust growth, increasing by 19.7 per cent on-year to reach Rs 148 lakh crore for the fortnight to July 28. This was primarily driven by the impact of the HDFC-HDFC Bank merger as well as growth in personal loans and loans to NBFCs, Care Ratings said in the report. If the merger impact is excluded, credit grew at a lower 14.7 per cent on-year for the fortnight, it noted.

HDFC Bank CEO flags funding risk; says net interest margins to be hit

HDFC Bank chief Sashidhar Jagdishan on Friday flagged funding as a risk for the lender after the successful USD 40 billion amalgamation with its parent. "As you know, the risks of the merger is the funding part of it," Jagdishan told shareholders of the largest private sector lender at its maiden annual general meeting after the merger came into effect from July 1. It can be noted that the bank has not been fully successful in getting all the forbearance it had sought from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on the liabilities front. The RBI refused to provide any exemptions on Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) and Statutory Liquidity Ratio (SLR) requirements on the deposits that come from HDFC, which was a deposit-taking entity. Additionally, questions were raised about the likely impact on HDFC Bank with respect to the RBI's move to put an incremental CRR of 10 per cent on deposit accretions in all the scheduled commercial banks after May. Jagdishan exuded confidence that the bank will be abl
