Consolidated Scrutinizer’s Report on remote e-voting & voting conducted at the 31st Annual General Meeting of HDFC Bank Limited held on Friday, August 8, 2025

To,

The Chairman

HDFC Bank Limited

HDFC Bank House,

Senapati Bapat Marg,

Lower Parel,

Mumbai - 400013.

Sub: Consolidated Scrutinizer’s Report on remote e-voting and e-voting conducted pursuant to Section 108 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“Act”) read with Rule 20 of the Companies (Management and Administration) Rules, 2014 as amended, and in accordance with the various General Circulars issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (‘MCA’) and the Securities and Exchange Board of India (‘SEBI’) in this regard.

I, B Narasimhan, Proprietor of BN & Associates, Company Secretaries, had been appointed as a Scrutinizer by the Board of Directors of HDFC Bank Limited (hereinafter referred to as the “Bank) at its meeting held on June 20, 2025 to scrutinize the remote e-voting process and e-voting process conducted at the 31st (Thirty–First) Annual General Meeting (‘AGM’) of the Bank held on Friday, August 8, 2025 at 02:00 P.M. (IST) by means of Video-Conferencing (VC), in a fair and transparent manner, pursuant to Section 108 of the Act read with Rule 20 of the Companies (Management and Administration) Rules, 2014 and in accordance with the Regulation 44 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations 2015 (“SEBI Listing Regulations”), as amended, by MCA and SEBI respectively (hereinafter referered to as “Applicable Circulars”), providing relaxation for the manner in which the AGM shall be held and conducted including the manner of sending the Notices and Annual Reports to the shareholders and the manner of voting at the meeting.

I say, I am familiar and well versed with the concept of electronic voting system as prescribed under the said Rules and the relaxations as provided in the Applicable Circulars.

Report on Scrutiny:

 

 

 

The Bank had appointed the National Securities Depository Ltd. (‘NSDL’) as the Service provider, for the purpose of extending the facility of Remote E-Voting to the Members of the Bank and for voting electronically at the meeting.

 

 

 

Datamatics Business Solutions Ltd. (formerly Datamatics Financial Services Ltd.) is the Registrar and Share Transfer Agents (‘RTA’) of the Bank.

 

 

 

NSDL had provided a system for recording the votes of the Members electronically through remote e-voting as well as at the AGM on all the businesses (both Ordinary and Special businesses) sought to be transacted at the 31st AGM of the Bank, which was held on Friday, August 8, 2025. Further, the electronic voting facility was set up on their website, https://www.evoting.nsdl.com. The AGM Notice was hosted on the Bank’s website and that of NSDL, and the Stock Exchanges viz., BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited to facilitate the Members of the Bank to cast their vote electronically through e-voting.

 

 

 

The Management of the Bank is responsible for ensuring compliance with the requirements of the Act, the Rules made thereunder and the SEBI Listing Regulations. My responsibility as the Scrutinizer of the voting process (through E-voting), was restricted to scrutinize the e-voting process, in a fair and transparent manner and to prepare a Scrutinizer’s Report of the votes cast in favour and against the resolutions stated in the Notice, based on the reports generated from the e-voting system provided by NSDL.

The cut-off date to determine the shareholders entitled to receive the Notice of the AGM was July 11, 2025 and as on that date, there were 35,90,231 Members of the Bank. As mentioned in the Applicable Circulars, NSDL had sent the Notices of the AGM along with Integrated Annual Report and E-voting details by e-mail to 34,55,022 Members consitituting 96.23% of the total Members, whose email-id was registered with the Depositories/ RTA.

 

 

 

The Notices sent through e-mail contained the detailed procedure to be followed by the Members who were desirous of casting their votes electronically as provided in the Rule 20 of the Companies (Management and Administration) Rules, 2014 as amended and as provided in the Applicable Circulars.

 

 

 

The Bank had completed the dispatch of the notices by e-mail to the Members on Monday, July 14, 2025.

 

 

 

The Bank, in terms of Regulation 36 (1) of the SEBI Listing Regulations, had also sent a letter to the Members, whose e-mail address was not registered with their respective Depository Participan or RTA, stating the web-link and the navigation path to access the Annual Report.

 

 

 

The Cut-off date for the purposes of identifying the Members who were entitled to vote on the resolutions placed for approval of the Members was Friday, August 1, 2025. As on that date there were 35,85,636 shareholders who were eligible to participate in the voting.

 

 

 

The voting period for remote e-voting commenced on Monday, August 4, 2025 (10:00 A.M IST) and ended on Thursday, August 7, 2025 (5:00 P.M. IST)

 

 

 

As prescribed in clause IV of the Circular dated May 5, 2020 issued by MCA, which is forming part of the Applicable Circulars, the Bank had released an advertisement prior to sending Notices to the Shareholders which was published in English Newspaper i.e., ‘Business Standard’ having country-wide circulation dated June 25, 2025 and in Marathi Newspaper i.e. ‘Navshakti’ dated June 25, 2025. The Notice published in these newspapers contained the required information as provided under clause IV (a) to (f) of the said circular.

 

 

 

As prescribed in clause (v) of sub-rule 4 of the Rule 20 of the Companies (Management and Administration) Rules, 2014, the Bank also released an advertisement, which was published more than 21 days before the date of the AGM in English Newspaper i.e. ‘Business Standard’ having country-wide circulation dated July 15, 2025 and in Marathi Newspaper i.e. ‘Navshakti’ dated July 15, 2025. The notice published in these newspapers contained the required information as specified in sub-rule 4(v) (a) to (h) of the said Rule 20.

 

 

 

At the end of the voting period on August 7, 2025 at 5:00 P.M.IST, the voting portal of NSDL was disabled and the details of the shareholders who have participated through remote evoting was downloaded from the website of NSDL.

 

 

 

At the 31st AGM of the Bank held through VC, the facility to vote electronically was provided to those members who attended the meeting through VC but could not participate in the remote e-voting to record their votes after considering all the items of business.

 

 

 

On August 8, 2025, after tabulating the votes cast electronically through the system provided by NSDL, the votes cast through Remote E-Voting facility was duly unblocked by me as a Scrutinizer in the presence of Mr. K. Venkataraman and Mr. Kartik Madrecha who acted as the witnesses, as prescribed in Sub Rule 4(xii) of the said Rule 20. After unblocking the votes cast, the total votes cast both through remote e-voting and by voting through electronic means at the AGM, were consolidated and the final Scrutinizer’s Report was prepared.

 

 

 

Thereafter, I as a Scrutinizer duly compiled details of the Remote E-Voting carried out by the Members and the electronic voting done at the AGM, the details of which are as follows:

The results of the Remote E-voting together with that of the voting conducted at the 31st AGM by way of Electronic means are as under:
