Seeks RBI intervention over interest rate cuts
Real estate developers body Credai has written to the RBI, saying that the banks have not adequately passed on the benefits of repo rate cuts to the NBFCs and housing finance companies (HFCs) and retail borrowers, thereby not allowing the real estate sector leverage the benefits of the rate cut
Real estate developers body Credai has written to the RBI, saying that the banks have not adequately passed on the benefits of repo rate cuts to the NBFCs and housing finance companies (HFCs) and retail borrowers, thereby not allowing the real estate sector leverage the benefits of the rate cut.
The industry body has sought 'urgent and immediate' intervention from the Reserve Bank of India in the matter. "The real estate sector, however, is not able to leverage the benefits of this reduction in repo rates.
The major restricting factor is that while the above-mentioned circular directs the banks to link the floating rates on housing loans to external benchmarks, the same is not made applicable to NBFCs and HFCs," it said.
In its letter dated May 26, the Confederation of Real Estate Developers Associations of India (Credai) also said that while the RBI has reduced 2.50 per cent in repo rates since January 2019, the maximum reduction passed on by banks to the borrowers has been between 0.7-1.3 per cent, largely from August 2019 till date.
In some cases, no benefit of repo rate reduction has been passed on at all, as per the industry body.
