The lawsuit, filed by the Rosen Law Firm, centers on allegations that HDFC Bank obscured payments by mislabeling them as marketing expenses. According to the complaint, these funds were used to pay higher interest to a state-owned firm to secure deposits. The filing claims these activities were sanctioned by senior management and violated both internal policies and external regulations, leading to inflated interest income and misstated operating expenses.
