HDFC Bank's Punjab positioning.
HDFC Bank operates 245+ Punjab branches with strongholds in Ludhiana (hosiery and bicycle-industry SME owner-buyers), Mohali Tricity (IT and IT-services salaried buyers), Amritsar, and Jalandhar (NRI Canada/UK remittance). The bank's Phase 8 Mohali branch is the primary lender for Infosys Mohali and Quark City employees.
Punjab's biggest home-loan story is the NRI Canada-UK-Australia remittance corridor, and HDFC has built a dedicated Punjab NRI desk in Jalandhar and Ludhiana that accepts Canadian T4, UK P60, and Australian PAYG slips directly. The bank competes with PNB (Punjab-home-state PSU) on resident salaried business but wins on digital sanction speed for Mohali Tricity IT employees. Punjab's 7% stamp duty (5% for women buyers — a 2% gap, India's widest) makes the women-applicant structure unusually attractive, and HDFC stacks its 8.55% women rate on top.
