HDFC Bank has announced its quarterly results for Q2 2025, revealing a 1.31% decline in consolidated net profit to ₹16,258 crore. The standalone net profit, however, increased to ₹18,155 crore, indicating strong performance in certain segments. Total income jumped to ₹99,200 crore, reflecting a robust operational environment.

The bank's board approved its first-ever bonus share issue and a special interim dividend of ₹5 per share. This marks a significant milestone for HDFC Bank, which has never undertaken a bonus issue since its inception. The record date for determining the entitlement of members to receive the bonus equity shares has been set as Wednesday, August 27, 2025 [2].

The bonus issue is a 1:1 share allotment, meaning shareholders will receive one fully paid-up equity share of face value Rs 1 for every one existing fully paid-up equity share of Rs 1 held. The authorized share capital was increased from Rs 1,190.61 crore to Rs 2,000 crore to accommodate the bonus issuance [2].

The special interim dividend, representing a 500% payout, will be paid to eligible shareholders on Monday, August 11, 2025. The record date for determining the eligibility of members to receive the dividend is Friday, July 25, 2025 [1].

Investors will be closely monitoring HDFC Bank's performance and the impact of the bonus issue and special dividend on the stock price. The options market is pricing in a ±3% move in HDFC Bank shares ahead of the 31 July expiry, setting the stage for various trading strategies [4].
