HDFC Bank Q2 Results Update

HDFC Bank, India's top private bank, just revealed its Q2FY24 results, highlighting impressive growth and stability.

In the July-September quarter, the bank's standalone net profit soared to ₹15,976.11 crore, a 50.6% increase from ₹10,605.78 crore last year.

A key factor in this success was the substantial growth in net interest income (NII), which surged by 30.27% to ₹27,385.23 crore, up from ₹21,021.16 crore the previous year.

HDFC Bank improved its non-performing assets (NPA) management, with gross NPA decreasing from 1.41% on June 30 to 1.34% on September 30.

The bank's careful lending strategies resulted in a low net NPA of 0.35% of net advances for the same period.
