Bottom Line:

Strong governance and equally strong asset quality has always been the hallmark of HDFC Bank setting it apart from its peers. Given its superior business model, the bank’s resilience across cycles will play out positively.

The bank has the ability to capitalize on any opportunities in the current macro uncertainties and maintain its growth without compromising on quality, the overhang with respect to the successor is over and Sashidhar has been appointed as the New chief of the bank after Aditya Puri.

The bank is one of the best banks in the country and the trajectory from a medium to long term basis is very positive. Since the successor overhang is over, the downside looks limited at the current juncture.
