Stock Market LIVE Updates | Brokerage Take: Bernstein on HDFC Bank: Outperform | Target Rs 2,200
HDFC Bank shares slumped more than 8% on Wednesday – its biggest single-day drop since March 2020 – as concerns over the bank’s future profitability triggered a sharp sell-off.
The biggest concern is on the drivers for the net interest margin (NIM) surprise and the lack of a clear pathway to normalization.
A continued weak deposit growth could limit loan growth and/or eat into margins.
Improvement in operating metrics of the bank now appears to be more dependent on the operating environment rather than an automatic even if a gradual improvement story.

Further dips in HDFC Bank will provide buying opportunities for long-term investors.

Sensex Today | Stock Market View: Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities
Wall Street declined overnight as positive US economic data dampened hopes for March rate cuts. Despite robust retail sales, Nifty experienced its sharpest single-day fall in 18 months, sparking concerns about heightened risk. Technical analysis suggests NIFTY’s support at 21407 and hurdles at 21807, while options data indicate a potential 21100-22000 trading range. Six negative catalysts, including banking stock caution and global uncertainties, weigh on market sentiment. Notably, Nifty IT index resisted the sell-off, driven by strong Q3 results. Amid Q3 corporate results anticipation, a preferred trade advises buying Nifty and Bank Nifty within specified zones. Bullish prospects are highlighted for APOLLO TYRES, MAZGAON DOCK, TATA POWER, and INDIAN BANK. A standout buy recommendation is INDIAN BANK (CMP 440), with targets at 461/501 and aggressive 15-18 months targets at 651, accompanied by a stop below 347.
