Blackstone-backed Aadhar Housing Finance (AHFL) has reinforced its position as India’s leading affordable housing loan provider with a significant 47% gain since its IPO in May. Analysts attribute this growth to the company’s large network and the government’s strong push for affordable housing.

Indian real estate IPOs have gained pace due to high demand in residential, commercial, and retail industries. Real estate IPOs generated ₹13,553 crore in 2024, a significant rise from the previous year, as firms use capital markets for growth.

Bajaj Housing Finance Limited (BHFL) plans to raise 6,560 crore via an IPO, including new share issuance and a sale. With quick expansion since its founding, a broad loan portfolio, and sound financials, BHFL can capitalise on India's rising housing demand.
