HDFC Bank says "Comfortable" with Higher bad loans in Q1

HDFC Bank Ltd <HDBK.NS> said it was "comfortable" with the rise in bad loans in its fiscal first quarter as the nation's second-biggest private sector lender by assets reported net profit rose by a fifth in line with analysts' estimates. Net profit was 32.39 billion rupees ($482 million) for the three months to June 30, the Mumbai-based bank said in a statement on Thursday. 

Analysts on average had expected a net profit of 32.52 billion rupees, according to data compiled by Thomson Reuters. Gross bad loans as a percentage of total loans rose to 1.04 percent as of June 30 from 0.94 percent as of end-March, which the bank's deputy managing director Paresh Sukthankar said was driven by small-and-medium corporate borrowers and individuals. 

"We are still very comfortable," Sukthankar told a news conference, adding "no serious large chunky" corporate account had contributed to the rise in the bad loans.
