Plain English
To justify today's price of $811.75, HDFCBANK.NS needs to grow its free cash flow at 3.9% per year for the next 10 years. That is 14.1% slower than its historical growth rate of 18.0%. This looks achievable — the market is not pricing in heroic assumptions. There may be genuine upside if the company executes.
