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. Deposits too witnessed healthy growth, increasing by 12.9 per cent for the fortnight, including the merger impact. Growth has not b
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
Anti-trust regulator CCI on Tuesday cleared the proposed purchase of 90 per cent equity stake in HDFC Credila Financial Services by a private equity consortium of BPEA EQT and ChrysCapital.

The USD 40-bllion merger of the HDFC twins may lead to a 300-basis points deceleration in credit off-take to 13-13.5 per cent this fiscal from a tad over 15 per cent last fiscal, a report said. Credit off-take grew 15.4 per cent on-year to Rs 140.2 lakh crore for the fortnight to June 16, driven by personal loans and lending to non-banks, up from 13.2 per cent a year ago. Meanwhile, deposits also saw a healthy growth at 12.1 per cent on-year in the same fortnight partly supported by the withdrawal of the Rs 2,000 bank notes. This had the spread between credit and deposits growth dropping to 337 basis points (bps) in the reporting fortnight from 875 bps in November 2022, which was the largest in recent years, Care Ratings said in a note. In absolute terms, for the trailing 12 months, deposits expanded by Rs 20 lakh crore while incremental credit expanded by Rs 18.7 lakh crore from Rs 14.1 lakh crore, the note said. Even though forecasting for a healthy growth in demand for credit,

The value of merger and acquisition (M&A) deals plunged 75 per cent to USD 32.6 billion in the first half of 2023 even as the number of such deals crossed an all-time high of 1,400, according to industry data. More than 1,400 transactions in the first half, up 5.2 per cent on-year, made the first half of 2023 busiest semiannual period in terms of number of deals since records began in 1980. But the overall value of M&As fell 75 per cent to USD 32.6 billion during the period due to the lack of mega deals above USD 5 billion, unlike last year when the HDFC twins announced the USD 40 billion record-breaking deal last April, according to financial markets data provider Refinitiv, a part of the London Stock Exchange Group. The volume rose because the market saw a healthier level of mid-market transactions dominating the deal street. No deals bigger than USD 1 billion was announced during the first quarter of 2023, but there were four deals within the USD 1-billion range announced ..
