In December 2021, the Corporation recorded its second-highest monthly individual disbursements ever. "This is despite the fact that the previous year entailed concessional stamp duty benefits in certain states which were not there in the current year," HDFC said in a statement.
"The demand for home loans and pipeline of loan applications continues to remain strong. Growth in home loans was seen in both, the affordable housing segment as well as in high-end properties. The increasing sales momentum and new project launches augur well for the housing sector," it said.
