In the previous year, a dividend from HDFC Bank was received in the second quarter.
The 54% rise in net profit is mainly on account of the dividend income and migration to the Indian Accounting Standard from April 1, 2018, which requires notional valuation of stock options. Without these two items, the rise in the net profit of the corporation would have been at 21%. The dividend income usually comes in the second quarter.
Keki Mistry, vice chairman and chief executive officer, HDFC, told DNA Money, “The dividend income of Rs 558 crore and the migration to Indian Accounting Standard mandates us to undertake a notional valuation of the stock options which was Rs 195 crore this quarter as against Rs 95 crore in the same quarter last year. The growth in advances was also healthy but there are always some pockets which may not grow at a healthy pace.”
The company’s Board also approved raising $1.5 billion or Rs 10,200 crore in external commercial borrowing and issuing debentures worth Rs 35,000 crore to meet the funding requirements.
The growth in the individual loan book was 25%. The non-individual loan book grew 18%. The growth in the total loan book was 23%. The average ticket size of individual loans stood at Rs 26.7 lakh. At the end of the quarter, the individual loans comprise 72% of the assets under management. The total loan book was at Rs 3,71,988 crore as against Rs 3,13,573 crore a year ago.
