HDFC Bank Ltd., India's largest private lender, has announced that its board will consider its first-ever bonus share issue and a special dividend at the upcoming board meeting on July 19. This announcement comes alongside the review and approval of the bank's Q1 FY26 financial results.The proposed bonus issue and special dividend are expected to enhance shareholder value and reflect HDFC Bank's strong financial performance. The bank's stock price has risen by 1.3% following the announcement, trading close to its record high of ₹2,027.90. Over the past six months, HDFC Bank has outperformed the market by surging 22%, compared to a 7% rise in the BSE Sensex [1].
HDFC Bank's strong financial performance is evident in its Q1 FY26 results, which include a 16.2% year-on-year increase in deposits and a 6.7% year-on-year growth in advances. The bank's recent sale of a ₹10,000 crore stake in its non-bank lending unit HDB Financial Services has also contributed to its financial health [2].
The board meeting will also consider the declaration of a special interim dividend on equity shares for the financial year 2025-26. This decision is subject to board approval and regulatory compliance [3].
