According to the management while metros have seen some moderation in demand due to high interest rates and property prices, growth from smaller towns is holding—up well and will be the key growth driver.

At present HDFC has a widespread branch reach with nearly 320 own outlets. Besides, more than 2,500 branches of HDFC Bank market HDFC’s mortgage loans. It has also tied—up recently with IndusInd Bank.

The management highlighted that not only are the longer—term potentials of mortgage financing strong in India, near—to—medium term demand is also holding—up well.
