The subsidiary, LICHFL carehomes ltd is expected to commence construction activities on its new project at Bhubaneswar.
The subsidiary, LICHFL Asset Management company Pvt Ltd is expected to commence its operations in REAL ESTATE sector this Fiscal.
The company has launched a new line of Business ‘property services division’ across the country in select centres. Its functions include all activities involved in enabling a prospective homebuyer select the property up to taking the possession of the same.
LICHF is very keen to make foray into the Banking sector as Union Budget for FY2010-11 has proposed Banking licenses to private sector players including NBFCs and once the RBI guidelines are in place, necessary approvals will be obtained.
COMMENTS :
It is clear – that LIC HF is making all preparations for foraying into other sectors like Banking – even while strengthening its presence in Housing Finance. It is also trying to become a ONE STOP SHOP for housing needs – rather than being a mere Housing finance shop.
It is ambitious enough to aim for the No.1 spot in Housing Finance sector.
At the same time – it is cautious enough – to keep its NPAs at LOWEST LEVELS displaying sufficient business acumen. Its future looks highly growth oriented and secure.
Therefore, LICHF seems to be an excellent buy – at current prices.
