LICHFL management

Indian housing finance industry overview

• The housing sector reveals a nation’s economic growth and social well-being. With the government’s focus on providing 'housing for all by 2022,' there has been a multitude of changes in the housing sector.
• Homeownership is no more a distant dream. Key reforms like the Goods and Service Tax (GST) Act and Real Estate Regulation Act (RERA) are starting to have visible changes in residential and commercial real estate.
• Increased hiring in the information technology sector has led to a significant rise in demand from home buyers in cities like Bengaluru, which has been a significant contributor to the home loan business.
• Following the lockdowns and the resultant work-from-home culture, there has been a significant demand boost for owning houses, and consequently, for home finance.

Industry growth prospects

• Housing Finance Companies (HFCs) are expected to show reasonable growth in FY2022-23.
• Their assets under management (AUM) are expected to grow by 9 to 11% in FY2022-23.
• As per ICRA, the return on managed assets for HFCs in FY2022-23 are expected to be near the pre-COVID levels of 1.8% to 2%.
• In FY2022-23, if HFCs continue to maintain their liquidity levels at current proportions, there will be a need for more new investment to meet their expansion requirements.

LICHFL growth prospects

• Targeted portfolio growth of approximately 15% in FY2022-23.
• Increased share of high-margin products like project finance and non-housing loans in total loan portfolio to 20%.
• Bringing the alternate channel's business contribution to approximately 20%.
• Concentrated marketing effort supported by digital penetration.
• Adding new customers by offering new products with mortgage insurance and better yields.
• Recruitment of around 1,000 more direct marketing intermediaries.
• Technological advancement to improve customer onboarding and to bring in process stabilisation.

Risk and Concerns

• Liquidity and funding-related risks remain a concern for the growth of Housing Finance Companies (HFCs) in India.
• A fragmented market with increasing competition poses threats to expansion.
• The recent Russia-Ukraine war has affected macroeconomic factors like cost inflation, increased interest rates, and currency volatility, all of which could hamper asset quality.
• The increased number of loan defaults in the retail and small business segments following COVID-19 is a major source of concern.
