Following the resignation of Atanu Chakraborty on 18 March, HDFC Bank's senior management is advocating for Keki Mistry to continue as interim part-time chairman beyond the initial three-month period. Sashidhar Jagdishan, the bank's managing director and CEO, expressed support for Mistry during the earnings call on 18 April, although the final decision will be made by the board's nomination and remuneration committee. Chakraborty's departure raised concerns about governance and internal controls, prompting the bank to engage external law firms to review his resignation letter.

Despite these challenges, HDFC Bank's performance remains robust, with a 12% year-on-year increase in loan growth, reaching ₹3.17 trillion. Deposits also grew over 14% to ₹3.91 trillion. The bank reported a net profit of ₹19,220 crore, surpassing analyst expectations, driven by improved asset quality and lower provisions. Management noted that while geopolitical tensions may pose some risks, the bank's positive momentum is expected to continue, with a net interest margin of 3.38%.
