HDFC Bank Slides Amid Lawsuit Claims and Leadership Woes
HDFC Bank shares have fallen sharply, weighing on sentiment as the lender faces legal, regulatory, and leadership challenges. The bank is dealing with a proposed U.S. securities class action over alleged illegal payments worth 450 million rupees to induce large deposits. Separately, investors report over 75 clients planning complaints over mis-selling, losses, and delayed redemptions, following a part-time chair’s March resignation citing ethical differences.
