Valuing HDFC Bank stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of HDFC Bank's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
HDFC Bank's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 134x. In other words, HDFC Bank shares trade at around 134x recent earnings.
That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.
HDFC Bank's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.97. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into HDFC Bank's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

There are currently 5.4 million HDFC Bank shares held short by investors – that's known as HDFC Bank's "short interest". This figure is 23.9% down from 7.1 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting HDFC Bank shares can be evaluated.
HDFC Bank's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of HDFC Bank shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of HDFC Bank shares traded daily (recently around 1.5 million). HDFC Bank's SIR currently stands at 3.69. In other words for every 100,000 HDFC Bank shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3690 shares are currently held short.
However HDFC Bank's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of HDFC Bank shares, or, against the total number of tradable HDFC Bank shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case HDFC Bank's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 HDFC Bank shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable HDFC Bank shares, roughly 0 shares are currently held short).
Such a low SIR usually points to an optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against HDFC Bank.

We're not expecting HDFC Bank to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
HDFC Bank's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 26 September 2019. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your HDFC Bank shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for HDFC Bank shares which in turn could have impacted HDFC Bank's share price.
Over the last 12 months, HDFC Bank's shares have ranged in value from as little as $29.5 up to $70.95. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while HDFC Bank's is 0.8863. This would suggest that HDFC Bank's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
