Prabhudas Lilladher.
Pat HDFCB at Rs 100.6 billion is Miss (Ple: Rs 115.04 billion), because of the weakness of NII and other income, although Opex is lower. The quality of stable assets and OTR pools is 1.1 percent of loans.
NII traction remains softer than loan growth due to non-retail focus. ACretion HDFCB credit in the past has recently been led by wholesalers and CRB, because credit standards are tightened in retail because of Covid. This has become a margin barrier.
The loan mixture in terms of non-retail / retail stands at 61/39 compared to 50/50 pre-pandemic. The balance sheet strength is recommended by 70 percent-plus PCR, contingent provisions at 71bps and CET-1 from 16.7 percent.
However, Roe Near-term (FY23 and FY24) can remain at 16-17 percent as a comment shows that the positive effect on the NIM can come from faster retail credit ofttake, can take 4-6 quarters to realize and Casa rises, Casa shares is estimated to be moderate.
We reduce our path for FY23E / 24E of 6 percent, because NII is lower and other income. Therefore, we cut our double target from 3.6x to 3.2x in March 2024 ABV and cut our target price from Rs 2,000 to Rs 1,740. Maintain purchases.

Research LKP

Oswal Maleral.
HDFC Bank continues to provide strong business growth of V / S of his colleagues, which results in market share profits. This is driven by sustainable momentum in the retail segment along with strong growth in commercial and rural banking and sharp pickup in wholesale loans.
NII and PPOP growth stands simple due to a decrease in margins even as floating income because of benign credit costs despite making additional contingent provisions.
The asset quality ratio has increased, while the book that is restructured is too much moderated to 1.14 percent of loans. Healthy PCR and the allowance for providing contingents provide comfort on asset quality.
We estimate HDFCB to send 20 percent Pat CAGR through FY22-24, with ROA / ROE 2.1 percent / 17.8 percent in FY24. We maintain our purchase rating at RS 1,850 target prices.
