The full read
HDB Financial Services delivered a 38% jump in net profit to ₹7,852 million for the June quarter, with revenue rising to ₹49,379 million from ₹44,654 million. Asset quality ticked up — the gross stage 3 ratio fell to 2.34% from 2.56% a year ago, and the net stage 3 ratio slipped to 1.04%. The provision coverage ratio held at 55.73% and the capital adequacy ratio stood at a comfortable 21.29%. All of this is fine. But the analyst call is clear: nothing in these numbers surprises the market. The stock already trades at a 24.3x trailing P/E, pricing in steady growth. The report confirms the trend, it doesn't change it. What matters now is whether loan demand and margins hold up in the quarters ahead.
