LIC Housing Cautious on Growth of 'Risky' Affordable Segment
Financial Express Kochi
|August 03, 2025
LIC HOUSING FINANCE will grow their affordable housing segment with caution on account of its riskier nature and industry-wide delinquencies in the segment, said MD & CEO Tribhuwan Adhikari in a post-earnings interaction.
"We understand the segment is slightly risky and the industry is also facing some asset quality pressure. Therefore, we are taking it very slowly and cautiously."
"Since we are also new to this segment, we don't have enough infrastructure and expertise right now, but we are trying to build it," said Adhikari.
LIC Housing Finance entered the affordable housing space last year. Over the next 3-4 years, the lender expects the segment to contribute 15% to the overall loan portfolio.
