HDFC Bank Share Price

Established in: 1994

Managing director: Sashidhar Jagdishan

HDFC Bank Ltd was incorporated on 30 August 1994, in Mumbai, Maharashtra, as a public limited company. It was promoted by the Housing Development Finance Corporation (HDFC Group), which was a prominent housing finance company in India.

The bank received its banking licence from the RBI in 1995 and started its operations as a scheduled commercial bank in January 1995.

HDFC Bank was established at the time of India’s economic liberalisation, privatization and globalisation era, which began in 1991. After liberalisation, the government opened the banking sector to private players for the first time, and HDFC Bank was among the first batch of private banks to receive the RBI’s approval.

Between 1995 and 2000, the bank expanded its retail banking network and operations across key metropolitan cities. It followed the technology driven-approch to provide fast services to its customers. Due to this, it gained the trust and gave tough competition to the existing private sector banks.

In 1996, HDFC Bank launched its IPO and got listed on the BSE and NSE. The IPO was oversubscribed multiple times, which shows the confidence of investors in the future of the bank. Later, in 2001, the bank’s ADS were listed on the New York Stock Exchange, which gave access to global investors to invest in its shares.

Over the years, HDFC Bank has also diversified into various financial sectors like insurance, mutual funds, asset management and capital market instruments, through its subsidiaries.

Its major subsidiaries include HDB Financial Services Limited, HDFC Life Insurance Company Ltd, HDFC ERGO General Insurance Company Ltd, HDFC Asset Management Company Ltd and HDFC Securities Ltd.
