PNB Housing Finance Targets Rs 100 Crore Micro-Housing Loan Book by FY27
PNB Housing Finance aims to grow its micro-housing loan portfolio to Rs 100 crore by the end of the current financial year, focusing on affordable housing. CEO Ajai Kumar Shukla emphasized maintaining strict underwriting standards despite targeting lower-income customers. The company plans to increase leverage from around 3.7-3.8 to nearly 6 over three years to support organic growth. Funding costs remain stable, with potential for slight easing, and construction finance lending has resumed cautiously in select cities.
