HDFC Bank's Atanu Chakraborty episode may not be dramatic for lender's financial show
HDFC Bank posted a strong FY26 performance despite recent governance-related headlines and leadership changes, with CreditSights noting that these developments are unlikely to have any meaningful impact on its credit profile or stability. The bank reported a 10.9% rise in net profit to Rs 74,700 crore, supported by 12.1% loan growth, robust deposit mobilisation, and continued best-in-class asset quality, with gross NPAs falling to 1.15% and credit costs at multi-quarter lows. Capital buffers remained strong with a CET1 ratio of 17.3%, underscoring resilience even as external macro risks persist.
