The offer is subject to receipt of regulatory approvals, market conditions and other considerations, the company added.
In September, HDFC Bank approved the unit’s IPO, marking the group’s first public offering in six years. This was after the Reserve Bank of India‘s 2022 October deadline, which mandated upper-layer NBFCs to be listed on stock exchanges within three years of being notified.
Back then, media reports said that HDFC Bank was looking for a valuation of ₹78,000 crore to ₹87,000 crore for HDB Financial Services.
Price Action: HDFC Bank was trading flat at ₹1,730.10 on Thursday morning.
