Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C. has joined Rosen Law Firm in notifying purchasers of HDFC Bank Limited securities about an October 13, 2026, deadline to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in a proposed securities class action filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The case covers investors who purchased HDFC securities, including NYSE-listed HDB, between July 17, 2023, and May 26, 2026. The lawsuit alleges that HDFC disguised payments as marketing expenses to pay higher interest to a state firm and induce deposits, that senior management approved the conduct, and that the activity likely violated regulations and company policies. It further alleges that the conduct overstated interest income and operating expenses and made the bank's public statements about its business and prospects materially misleading. Earlier notices cited an October 12 deadline, while Rosen's and Bragar Eagel & Squire's Sept. 15 releases identify October 13. The class has not been certified, and investors may remain absent class members without serving as lead plaintiff. Bragar Eagel & Squire says investors can contact Brandon Walker or Melissa Fortunato about their legal rights without cost or obligation.
