Fundamental Analysis – HDFC Bank Share:
Number of Shares – 548.33 Cr Shares
Market Capital – Rs. 671126.79 Cr
As our readers know, the basic part of quantitative fundamental analysis is Valuation ratios.
Valuation Ratio:
Unlike others, Bank Shares will have a different set of valuation methods and aspects to understand the safety and stability of the bank.
1. Book Value:
Book value is known as the loan book of a bank. It has grown by 23% in Q2’2021 compared to the previous quarter. The current total Book value of Q2’2021 is Rs. 1609428 Cr. The book Value per Share is Rs. 321.63.
2. Price to Book value:
The P/B ratio of the current market price (CMP) is 3.81. This is too high; the share price is 3.81 times higher than the book value. P/B of a bank stock should be less than 1, ideally. Banks like HDFC, with 18% year-on-year revenue, can have a P/B of a maximum of 2. 3.81 is a worrying sign for investors.
3. Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR):
CAR is the most important parameter to analyze before investing in bank shares. It states the percentage of capital against the total credit of the bank.
A Bank should have a minimum CAR of 15%. HDFC Bank currently has 19.1% as of Q2’2021. It was 18.5% and 17.5% in FY2020 and Q2’2020, respectively. It has shown a perfect increase in the CAR quarter on quarter.
4. Non-Performing Assets (NPA%):
NPA is the percentage of outstanding loans without any return to the total estimated asset. As NPA increases, bank stability decreases. There is no minimum threshold in NPA%. Every bank loves to keep NPA at 0, but ultimately not possible.
There are two types of NPA – Gross and Net. HDFC Bank’s current (Q2’2021) Gross NPA – is 1.08% and its Net NPA – is 0.17%. This has reduced gross NPA – by 1.38% and Net NPA -by 0.42% in Q1’2021.
In terms of NPA, the bank has also shown a great green signal for its investors of safety and stability.
5. Other Ratios:
These ratios don’t have much impact on the valuation of shares. Anyhow, we have shared it for your reference.
