HDB Financial shares slip below IPO price for first time, down over 1% to hit new 52-week low
Shares of HDB Financial Services slipped below their issue price of Rs 740 for the first time on Monday, tumbling 1.4% to touch a new 52-week low of Rs 738.20 on the BSE, marking a reversal from the company's strong listing debut last month. ADVERTISEMENT The decline brings the stock below its IPO issue price of Rs 740, after having opened at Rs 835 during its market debut on July 2. The shares had listed at a premium of 12.84% over the issue price, reflecting strong investor interest at the time. HDB Financial's Rs 12,500 crore initial public offering (IPO) comprised a fresh issue of Rs 2,500 crore and an offer-for-sale of Rs 10,000 crore. The issue closed on June 27 with an overwhelming response, being subscribed 17.65 times overall. Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs) led the demand, subscribing their portion 31.73 times. Despite a volatile market backdrop, investor enthusiasm was driven by the company's strong parentage and diversified loan book across retail, SME, and asset finance also boasts a wide phygital footprint with over 1,700 branches across India, more than 80% of which are located outside the top 20 cities. The IPO attracted bids worth over Rs 1.61 lakh crore, making it the second-most subscribed large issue (over Rs 10,000 crore) after Tata Technologies. While it fell short of Bajaj Housing Finance's Rs 3 lakh crore+ record, it surpassed other recent NBFC listings in terms of demand. ADVERTISEMENT At the upper end of the price band, HDB Financial was valued at a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 28.15x based on FY25 earnings, with an implied market capitalization of around Rs 61,253 crore.

Volvo cars takes a U-turn on EV-only plan for India mkt
Volvo Cars will continue to introduce both electric and internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles in India, pivoting its earlier strategy of going all-electric amid slow customer adoption of battery electric vehicles (BEVs). The Swedish luxury carmaker had last year said it will henceforth sell only electric vehicles in India in its bid to have an all-electric portfolio by the turn of the decade. Volvo's strategy mirrors those of other global car makers like Jaguar Land Rover, and zzz who are revising plans to have an all-electric product range. Speaking to ET, Jyoti Malhotra, managing director at Volvo Cars India , said globally, too, while the company intends to go all electric, timelines have now been pushed beyond 2030. 'The adoption rate (of electric vehicles) is different in different countries. And even within the country (in India), it's different across states,' said Malhotra. He said government policies are crucial in deepening EV penetration in India, with states that have waived off road taxes seeing higher adoption rates among customers. 'We will continue to drive in electric cars and have a launch lined up later this year itself. But at the same time, we will continue to focus on ICE,' said Malhotra. EVs currently contribute about 25% of Volvo's sales in India. The market for such eco-friendly luxury cars is however still small though it is growing, according to the company. 'About a year back, EVs had started losing steam. We are seeing some uptick in the segment in the last six months. But customer needs are different across regions,' said Malhotra. 'Home charging is extremely important for customer comfort when it comes to owning EVs. In cities, where there are high-rises, charging electric cars is challenging,' he said, adding Volvo is seeing stronger EV adoption in states like Kerala, Maharashtra, and Delhi where there are low-rises and state policies are conducive. He was speaking on the sidelines of the launch of the XC60 SUV model. Globally, Volvo does have plug-in hybrids in its portfolio, but Malhotra said the company will only consider launching them in India if the tax structures are more conducive. India currently levies a Goods and Services Tax (GST) rate of 5% on EVs, and 43% on hybrids. Overall, Malhotra said luxury car sales in India , which had been outpacing the broader car market in the last few years, slowed in the first half of 2025 as volatile stock markets, and mounting geopolitical tensions hit demand among the country's rich, aspirational buyers. He however added that Volvo is on track to meet its sales target for this calendar year though industry growth is likely to be muted. Separately, Malhotra termed FTAs being inked or negotiated by the Indian government as a step in the right direction, which will help to grow the auto industry in the long run. 'The UK FTA has set a benchmark. While the one with the EU is still some time away, free trade agreements are good for the economy. India is seen as a market with growth potential. If any company were to invest in India today, they will only consider the scale available in the market here. With FTAs, the scale changes immediately as they open up access to many more markets globally,' he said, adding Volvo can also explore possibilities for expanding its footprint in India once the EU trade deal is finalised.
