Solvency and debt-coverage ratios — lower is generally safer
HDFC Bank Limited carries a Debt/EBITDA ratio of 8.1x, which is highly leveraged (89% above the sector average of 4.3x). Net debt stands at $4.2T ($7.5T total debt minus $3.2T cash). Interest coverage of just 0.5x is concerning — the company has limited headroom to absorb earnings volatility before struggling with debt service.

Short-term solvency ratios and asset-utilisation metrics
The current ratio of 0.34x is below 1.0, meaning current liabilities exceed current assets — though the company's $3.2T cash position helps mitigate short-term liquidity concerns. The current ratio has declined from 4.96x to 0.34x over the past 3 years.
