HDFC Bank, India’s largest bank by assets, has announced that its Board of Directors will meet on Saturday, April 19, 2025, to approve the financial results for the January to March quarter (Q4) and the full financial year 2024–25. This announcement was made through a stock exchange filing. The bank will release both standalone results (only HDFC Bank’s performance) and consolidated results (including subsidiaries).
In addition to the financial results, the bank may also declare a final dividend for the year. The board will discuss and decide whether shareholders will receive a dividend for 2024–25. It’s worth noting that in the previous year, HDFC Bank had declared a cash dividend of ₹19.50 per share, rewarding its shareholders generously. If a dividend is announced, the board will also set a record date—a specific date that determines which shareholders are eligible to receive the dividend.
To maintain fairness and avoid any misuse of confidential information, HDFC Bank has closed its trading window from March 25 to April 21, 2025. During this period, employees and their close relatives are not allowed to trade HDFC Bank shares. This is a common measure followed by companies to prevent insider trading.
Apart from financial results and dividends, the board will also review plans to raise funds. This includes the annual renewal of long-term bond issuances, especially to finance infrastructure and affordable housing projects. The board may also consider issuing Perpetual Debt Instruments (part of Tier I capital) and Tier II capital bonds through private placement, which allows them to raise funds directly from select investors over the next 12 months.
