PNB Housing Finance Managing Director Sanjaya Gupta said that this was the first ECB disbursement in the current financial year under the RBI automatic route and added that several other ECB proposals are in the pipeline.
"The RBI has allowed us to borrow ECB up to $750 million annually under the automatic route and considering the strong fundamentals and inherent growth of the company, we are hopeful that in the coming months our company will further utilise the facility," Gupta said.
"To support the Indian government's vision of Housing for All by 2022, our country strategy places a strong emphasis on the affordable housing sector… Our partnership with PNB Housing Finance will help them further expand to smaller towns and cities and reach low-income customers with loans to buy homes and help raise their living standards," IFC South Asia Manager Financial Institutions Group Hemalata Mahalingam said.
