Analysis

Beloved champion

HDFC Bank Limited is a beloved champion: its quality is genuine, and the market already prices it as exceptional.

The price is attractive. You pay 13.8× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically attractive zone. At today's price, the market is assuming roughly 1% yearly growth; analysts expect 13%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

The trajectory is solid and the balance sheet is adequate. The company scores 10/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value. Analysts lean positive.

What to watch: Some accounting patterns deserve a closer look. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
