Ashok Hinduja reassures shareholders amid IndusInd Bank’s market turbulence

IndusInd Bank promoter Ashok Hinduja addressing financial concerns

IndusInd Bank’s promoter, Ashok Hinduja, has assured investors that the bank remains financially strong despite recent turbulence in its stock performance. He confirmed that the promoters are prepared to inject capital if needed, reiterating confidence in the institution’s ability to handle its ongoing challenges.

The reassurance follows a sharp decline in IndusInd Bank’s stock, which plummeted 26% on March 11, wiping out nearly Rs 18,000 crore from its market capitalization. The drop was triggered by concerns over discrepancies in the bank’s derivatives portfolio, which is expected to have a 2.35% impact on its net worth.

“Shareholders need not panic”

Speaking to the media, Hinduja emphasized that the bank remains in a strong financial position.

“Shareholders need not panic. These are routine issues. I understand the concern regarding the delay in communication, but banking is built on trust and integrity,” he stated.

Hinduja also reaffirmed confidence in the bank’s leadership, noting that IndusInd Bank has successfully navigated various challenges over its 30-year history.

“We’ve seen IndusInd Bank through various challenges, and they have been handled effectively. This issue, too, will be resolved,” he added.

Capital adequacy remains strong

Despite the market reaction, Hinduja reiterated that the bank remains well-capitalized. He clarified that while the promoters are willing to inject fresh capital if necessary, the bank’s capital adequacy ratio stands above 15%, and there is currently no immediate concern.

“If there’s a need for capital raise, the promoter is ready to inject funds. We are awaiting approval from the regulator. However, as of now, the bank’s capital adequacy ratio is above 15%, and there are no concerns.”

Market reaction and leadership concerns

The decline in stock value was further exacerbated by brokerages downgrading IndusInd Bank following the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) decision to approve a one-year extension for MD & CEO Sumant Kathpalia—shorter than expected.

On March 10, IndusInd Bank disclosed that an internal review had revealed discrepancies in its derivatives portfolio, which could impact its net worth by approximately Rs 1,500 crore. However, the final impact is still subject to an external review.

Hinduja assured that the bank’s board and management are fully equipped to manage the situation, adding that similar challenges have been faced by banks worldwide.

“The board and management are capable of resolving these issues,” he stated.

As IndusInd Bank navigates the current volatility, investors are closely monitoring further developments regarding its derivatives portfolio review and capital injection plans.
