What will be HDFC Bank’s weightage?

Additionally, HDFC Bank’s weight in the MSCI index is expected to rise to between 7.2% to 7.5% in the August 2024 review, up from the current 3.8%. This adjustment comes as foreign institutional holdings (FII) have decreased below 55%, which could lead to passive inflows of up to $4 billion, as estimated by Nuvama. 

The rebalancing of HDFC Bank’s weight will occur in two phases. The first adjustment will take place after the current review, with the second scheduled for after the November review, provided the foreign headroom remains at least 20%. 

Nuvama Alternative and Quantitative Research anticipates potential inflows of $1.8 billion for HDFC Bank over four-and-a-half days following the initial weightage increase.
