HDFC Bank shares underperform despite Q2 CEO clarity
In short
HDFC Bank shares are lagging, even after CEO clarity and a Q2 update. A CNBC TV18 Market summary quoted IIFL’s Rikin Shah saying he likes large private banks for the next two years, but sees HDFC Bank growing earnings slower than Axis, Kotak and ICICI Bank.
This matters because investors are comparing HDFC Bank with other big private lenders. The source does not say how much the shares moved or give the Q2 numbers.
