Strategising with purpose

Building Tomorrow Today

Aadhar Housing lays out a comprehensive blueprint to solidify its leadership in the housing finance market. The Company charts a course toward sustainable growth and substantial impact by prioritising innovation, distribution, customer-centricity, and operational excellence. This strategic focus not only prepares us for future challenges but also cements our commitment to making a meaningful difference in the lives of our customers.

Expanding the Distribution Network for Deeper Market Penetration

Aadhar Housing is expanding its distribution network across India to meet the growing demand from urbanisation. The Company strategically places its branches, from main to ultra-micro branches, to efficiently cater to diverse market demands. This structured approach helps control operational costs and ensures optimal service at each location. By analysing demographics and market trends and employing the AGU product for market testing, Aadhar Housing aligns its expansion with actual market needs. Ongoing evaluations enable the Company to adjust its strategy, ensuring effective market penetration and improved service delivery.

Enhancing Reach in Target Segments

In FY 2024, Aadhar Housing significantly expanded its customer base, serving over 266 thousand live accounts, primarily drawn from economically weaker and low-to-middle-income segments. The Company’s strategic focus remains steadfast on the Low-Income Group (LIG) and Economically Weaker Sections (EWS), with a modest contribution from the Middle-Income Group (MIG). Despite the challenges of low mortgage penetration in India-largely due to variable income levels and the prevalence of informal employment-the prospects for growth are notably promising. Aadhar Housing prioritises low-income housing, leveraging digital innovations to widen access to its financial solutions.
