Earlier in the week, HDFC Bank’s shares hit an all-time high, buoyed by the anticipation of increased inflows from MSCI Rejig. The bank’s shareholding data for the June quarter showed a decline in foreign institutional investors’ (FII) shareholding, which paved the way for increased weightage for the stock in the MSCI index and increased inflows to the scrip.
Goldman Sachs also maintained its bullish stance on HDFC Bank, keeping it on its APAC high-conviction list. The brokerage firm sees the bank's synergies driving substantial market share gains for India’s largest lender.
