From HDFC Bank Ltd's Q4 FY25 earnings-call transcript · updated 23 Aug 2026.

Revenue & Sales Performance

HDFC Bank expects moderate loan growth in FY '26, aligned with market rate growth, following a slower FY '25 due to cautious lending and market conditions.
Incremental loan growth will focus on targeted segments with controlled credit risk; no lowering of credit standards to increase volumes.
SME and retail loan segments show early signs of growth recovery, with opportunities to gain market share without increasing loss ratios.
The bank aims to gain market share in both CASA (current and savings accounts) and time deposits over the next 18-24 months through branch expansion, technology investment, and enhanced customer relationships.
Deposit growth has been strong (~15.8% YoY), supported by wide distribution and customer engagement.

The bank intends to maintain stable margin and return on assets (ROA ~1.8-1.9%), leveraging stable credit policies and operational efficiencies.
Cost-to-income ratio is expected to improve gradually due to prior investments in branches and technology enhancing productivity, although benefits will be realized over a longer horizon, not quarter-to-quarter.

Fundraising & Capital Structure

The bank has borrowings with a maturity profile, including about INR 0.5 trillion of legacy bond borrowings set to mature.
There is opportunity for new borrowings, particularly infrastructure borrowings, which could be more cost-effective depending on market rates.
The bank's borrowing mix currently stands at about 14%, up from premerger levels of roughly 8-9%.
Around 60-65% of borrowings are hedged (floating rate hedged).

- The bank manages borrowing strategy by balancing deposits and infrastructure borrowings based on cost-effectiveness. - No explicit mention of new equity fundraising or immediate plans for raising fresh equity capital in the discussed section. In summary, HDFC Bank plans to manage debt maturities through refinancing with potentially cost-effective borrowings but does not indicate any imminent equity fundraising.
