The only strong reason against ICICI that i have got is equity dilution...
All other reasons are there and more in ICICI...
 
So, if ICICI does NOT dilute its equity in next 10 years ...
then with less PE and with less P/B - Isn't ICICI worth more than HDFC ?
 
My gut says that in next 10 years - ICICI would give more that HDFC....
If u want, we can check the progress of ICICI and HDFC yearly from now onwards ...
 
Good Luck !

HDFC Bank has firmly established its brand and recently has grown its deposit base of over 1 crore customers.

 

The company should continue with its 25% - 30% growth rate over next few years. Increasing number of branches and ballooning customers would help the company in cross selling products. This fee base income should keep the bank in good stead. 

 

Despite the rate increases all the various sections of the bank’s retail asset segments witnesses robust demand. There have been some delay in new branch addition but the company continues to grow its business unabated.The  share of retail lending in loan book is likely to further increase from current 55%.

 

When we initially initiated the discussion on the Banking stocks HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank traded at Rs 697 and Rs 467 respectively. They have gone up about 33% and 52% respectively.

 
Shall provide update on ICICI bank (also growing equally fast)   very soon.

Hi just to share this piece of information
 
ICICI bank has launched its exposure in the International Diamond sector in a big way, has already opened branches in London & Belgium to my knowledge. Infact its getting its piece of cake from ABN Amro Bank, SBI, ADB Bank who were considered stalwarts in Diamond Credits.
happy & wise investing

While we look at the growth prospects of HDFC Bank and ICICIC Bank we must consider the negative factors also.Agressive lending brings with it NPAs.The market is giving higher PE to HDFC Bank on this factor as well.

I think from a brand-recall point of view, ICICI BANK is way ahead of HDFC
bank, but from an investors point of view, HDFC bank is a better bet, though
only marginally ahead.

ICICI is now the market leader in almost all the key financial businesses - retail lending, corporate banking, asset management and insurance. It is also the  2nd largest bank in India and the largest private bank. The total value of assets at more then Rs 260,000 crores is 9% of the entire banking system.

 

The retail loan book at Rs 90,000 crores is growing fast and despite the bank’s increased pace of growth is among the fastest growing banks. Retail constitutes the largest share of its loan book (67%) and these loans were up 60% in 1Q07.

 

The deposit base is also growing fast at (60%YoY). The fastest growth is happening in the savings deposit at 90%YoY.

 

ICICI has a 17% share of incremental system deposits indicating that it is aggressively growing its market share. The proposed international forays coupled with its strategy to go rural should be the growth drivers for the next few years.

 

Insurance and asset management sectors are witnessing strong growth. In the Private life insurance segment ICICI is the market leader is the market leader with a 32%. The new business premiums grew at 160% in 1QFY07. Its AMC has also now emerged as the largest in its segment   

 

CLSA has valued ICICI’s stake in its subsidiary at Rs 18,000 crores.That comes to around Rs 200 per share. So the value of the main business is Rs 500 per share at around 1.88 times adjusted book (FY 07)

The Bank’s international strategy is powered by, globalization of Indian corporate and leveraging the low cost India technology structure.

 

Rural India is an under -banked segment to tap this opportunity ICICI is partnering with several companies and micro finance institutions and shall be developing innovative products. It already has put up 8,500 customer touch points in rural India and the loan book exceeds Rs18,000 crores.
