As India continues to be the world’s fastest-growing major economy, Fortune India presents its special issue on the nation’s Top 100 Billionaires. Curated in partnership with Waterfield Advisors, this year’s list reflects a slight decline in the number of dollar billionaires—from 185 to 182—even as the entry threshold for the Top 100 rose to ₹24,283 crore, up from ₹22,739 crore last year. From stalwarts like Mukesh Ambani, Gautam Adani, and the Mistry family, who continue to lead the list, to major gainers such as Sunil Mittal and Kumar Mangalam Birla, the issue goes beyond the numbers to explore the resilience, ambition, and strategic foresight that define India’s wealth creators.

HDFC’s net interest income (NII) for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, saw marginal growth at ₹4,447 crore compared to ₹4,125 crore in the previous year. The company says in Q1 FY23, interest rate actions have had an “immediate impact” on borrowing costs, without a simultaneous transmission on the asset side.
The average size of individual loans during Q1 stood at ₹35.7 lakh compared to ₹33.1 lakh in FY22. As of June 30, 2022, HDFC’s assets under management (AUMs) stood at ₹6,71,364 crore against ₹5,74,136 crore in the previous year; individual loans comprise 79% of the AUMs.
"On an AUM basis, the growth in the individual loan book was 19%. This marks the highest percentage growth in the individual loan AUM in 8 years," says HDFC.
HDFC’s gross non-performing loans were ₹10,288 crore in the quarter, around 1.78% of the portfolio. It says its gross individual non-performing loans (NPLs) in the quarter were 0.98% of the individual portfolio, while the gross non-performing non-individual loans were 4.44% of the non-individual portfolio.
HDFC also carried a total provision of ₹13,328 crore in the quarter.
HDFC’s NIM during the quarter was 3.4%. The company says in the corresponding quarter of the previous year, due to the second wave of COVID-19, there was ample liquidity in the system and consequently, overnight interest swap rates fell to very low levels, thus expanding NII and net interest margin (NIM).
The spread on loans over the cost of borrowings for the quarter was 2.25%, the spread on the individual loan book was 1.91% and on the non-individual book was 3.45%.
The company says it has increased its benchmark lending rates. It has incrementally shifted from a quarterly reset for individual loans to a monthly reset to reduce the impact of transmission of rate changes, it adds.
HDFC's cost-to-income ratio stood at 9.5% for the period. The capital adequacy ratio was 21.9%, of which Tier I capital was 21.4% and Tier II capital was 0.5%, higher than the minimum requirement of 15% and 10%, respectively.
