HDB Fin Services to raise Rs 2.5k cr via debt capital

HDB Financial Services, a subsidiary of HDFC Bank, is planning to raise about Rs 2,500 crore of debt capital to support business growth. The subordinated debt is to the tune of Rs 2,000 crore while perpetual debt is nearly Rs 500 crore.

After witnessing asset quality pressures in the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic, the finance company has improved its risk profile and health to support sustained growth in loan book.

Rating agency CRISIL has assigned a ?AAA? rating to both instruments. The rating reflects an established presence in the retail finance space, its healthy capitalisation, and expectation of continued support from its parent and majority owner HDFC Bank, CRISIL said.

The non-banking finance company?s gross stage III, also known as bad loans assets, reduced to 2.25 per cent in December 2023 from 2.73 per cent in March 2023 and 4.99 per cent in March 31, 2022. The reduction was supported by write-offs and lower slippages. The company has maintained stage III provision cover of 68 per cent as of December 31, 2023.

The unit of HDFC Bank is one of the larger players in the retail financing space. Its asset under management (AUM) rose to Rs 83,989 crore as of December 31, 2023, from Rs 70,084 crore as of March 31, 2023 and Rs 61,444 crore as of March 31, 2022.
