The merged entity’s deposits grew by 16.2 per cent YoY at Rs 20.63 trillion at the end of the first quarter.

Sequentially, the merged entity’s advances rose by about 0.7 per cent to Rs 22.30 trillion as of March 31, 2023.

However, the pace of deposit mobilisation was higher at 1.2 per cent over Rs 20.39 trillion as of March 31, 2023.

 

The merged entity's average Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) was around 120 per cent for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.

The country’s largest private sector lender gave out details about the performance for the merged entity on a proforma basis.

Mortgage major Housing Development Finance Corporation (HDFC) amalgamated with and into HDFC Bank on July 1, 2023.

HDFC Bank informed stock exchange BSE that the housing finance firm closed its books of accounts a few days prior to the quarter ended June 30, 2023 to facilitate the merging of its financials with those of the bank.

Accordingly, some of the numbers may not be directly comparable with those of the previous year.

Its deposits were up by 19.2 per cent to Rs 19.13 trillion as of June 30, 2023.
