Statement guide

HDFC Bank statement PDF password

HDFC protects emailed statements with a password it never spells out on the file itself. These are the formats that work, most common first — and what to do when none of them do.

Read this first

There is no single HDFC password that works for everyone. The format differs between a savings account and a credit card, between net banking and the mobile app, and between older and newer accounts. The exact format for your file is stated in the email the statement arrived in — usually just under the attachment. Treat the list below as the order to try.

Account statement password

For an HDFC Bank savings or current account statement, try these in order:

  1. Customer ID: Your HDFC Customer ID (the 8–10 digit number on your cheque book and net banking profile)
  2. Date of birth: DDMMYYYY — Used on some app-generated statements.

Credit card statement password

Card statements usually use a different format from account statements:

  1. Name + card digits: First 4 letters of your name in CAPITALS + last 4 digits of the card number
  2. Card digits + birthday: Last 4 digits of the card + DDMM of your date of birth

The rules people get wrong

Downloading a fresh statement

  1. Sign in to HDFC NetBanking and open Accounts → Enquire → Account Statement.
  2. Pick the account and a date range, then choose Statement in PDF / Excel.
  3. For cards, open Cards → Credit Cards → Card Statement and pick a billing period.

A statement you download while signed in is often not password protected — the protection exists because the file travels by email. If the password is fighting you, re-downloading is usually faster than guessing.

If none of them work

Or let Ekatra read it

Ekatra opens the statement with the password you supply, extracts your accounts, transactions and balances, and files them onto one dashboard — then discards the file. The password is used once and never stored, and Ekatra never asks for your netbanking login. How that works →
