HDB Double-Digit Growth Overshadowed by Leadership Exit

This growth underscores stable momentum across the bank's credit and deposit franchises. However, the stock continues to face headwinds following a recent leadership transition, which has overshadowed the positive operational metrics. Despite the market's cautious stance, the lender's core balance sheet indicators point to resilient and stable business expansion during the quarter.
