Housing finance companies take a beating after RBI’s repo diktat

Deccan Chronicle  

Mumbai: Shares of housing finance companies fell sharply after Reserve Bank of India directed all categories of lenders to link their loan interest rates to an external benchmark from next month coinciding with the festive season. so to expect banks to borrow fixed and lend floating rate, especially at rates linked to an external benchmark, may not be practical,” Suresh Ganapathy of Macquarie Capital Securities said in a note. Banks having home finance portfolio also declined with ICICI Bank losing 2.16 per cent and State Bank of India, 0.65 per cent. “This would primarily impact the housing loans segment which has variable interest rate, as vehicle or any other asset financing generally has a fixed interest rate,” Care Ratings said.
