HDFC Bank reported Q1 FY26 (quarter ended June 30, 2025) standalone net profit of Rs. 18,155 crore on total income of Rs. 99,200 crore, with basic EPS of Rs. 23.71. Asset quality remained strong with gross NPAs at 1.40% and net NPAs at 0.47%, while capital adequacy ratio stood at 19.88%. The board declared a special interim dividend of Rs. 5 per share (500%) with a record date of July 25, 2025, payable on August 11, 2025. Additionally, the bank approved a 1:1 bonus share issue (one free share for every share held), entailing roughly 766.79 crore new equity shares to be issued from the securities premium account, with record date set for August 27, 2025. The bank also booked a one-time gain of about Rs. 9,128 crore from the partial divestment of HDB Financial Services via its recent IPO.
The 1:1 bonus doubles the share count but lowers the per-share price proportionally, so total shareholder value is unchanged on day one, though higher liquidity can improve trading and inclusion in indices. The special dividend provides a near-term cash reward, and the strong Q1 results and clean asset quality reinforce the bank's premium valuation story for shareholders.
