The country's largest private bank, HDFC, has given a big gift to its shareholders. For the first time, the company has asked to issue bonus shares to investors. Also, the company has issued a record date for the dividend. The company has announced this after the profit in the first quarter of FY 2026.

Along with this, the net interest income of the bank has also increased by 5.4 percent to Rs 31,440 crore.
Announcement of a bonus for the first time
HDFC Bank has announced that it will give bonus shares to its investors for the first time. The bank said that it will give a bonus to investors in the ratio of 1:1. This means that if you have 1 share of HDFC, you will get 1 share for free. The number of shares in the portfolio will increase. For this, the bank has fixed the record date on Wednesday, August 27, 2025. After this, the bonus shares will be sent directly to the demat account.
Double fun for investors
HDFC Bank has also announced to give a dividend along with bonus shares. The bank said that it will give an interim dividend of Rs 5 on every equity share for the financial year 2025-26. The record date for this has been fixed as 25 July 2025; investors who invest in the stock before this will be given a dividend on 11 August 2025.
