HDFC Bank, India’s most valued lender, has seen a decline in its stock value in the past three months, raising concerns about its impact in the banking sector. The bank’s performance has been relatively subdued compared to public-sector lenders, and uncertainties surrounding its merger with its home-financing parent have weighed on the stock.
