New RBI home loan guidelines will benefit EWS, LIG: DHFL

Harshil Mehta of DHFL believes the guidelines may also get 

extended for middle income group (MIG) which costs around 

Rs 12-15 lakh in tier-2 and tier-3 cities.


Giving a boost to affordable housing, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) eased norms last 


week for home loans of up to Rs 10 lakh. CNBC-TV18 spoke with Harshil Mehta, CEO,  

DHFL to know the positives of this announcement for his company and the industry.   

According to Mehta, the new RBI guideline will largely benefit the economically weaker 

sections (EWS) or the low income group (LIG) segment where the stamp duty registratio is 

anywhere between 12 -16 percent of the cost of unit which was earlier excluded from 

calculating the loan eligibility. Mehta believes the guidelines may also get extended for 

middle income group (MIG) which costs around Rs 12-15 lakh in tier-2 and tier-3 cities.
