Of all
challenges our burgeoning population has, Affordable Housing
has been a major concern. In the last few years, the Government
has been trying to surmount this challenge with a host of incentives.
This in turn has propelled growth especially amongst
the first time home-buyers.
As an
organisation, we have worked relentlessly for this cause and
are proud to be one of the leading contributors in helping people
in this category to own a home.
A lot remains to
be done, with large sections still awaiting
to avail these possibilities. We are consistently working towards
ensuring the number of home-owners keeps on increasing rapidly
in the years to come.

Our resolve, since inception, to provide fellow-Indians
the opportunity to become home-owners, has been
propelling us forward.
To achieve this, we have invested the last four decades
in understanding markets, developing strategies,
anticipating needs and responding with products and processes
which help varied socio-economic segments of the population
to live their dream of buying homes as easily as possible.
At HDFC, the trust we have earned over the years has enabled us
to be the perfect meeting ground for homes and potential
audiences. With increasing budgets being allocated to
the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana-Gramin and Pradhan Mantri
Awas Yojana-Urban, we see a greater role for our organisation
in the housing sector in the coming years.
We never take our leading position in the market for granted.
We have worked to be future-ready with attractive product features,
tech-led decision protocols, and seamless integration of systems and
processes to offer improved e-solutions.
Going beyond trends and concentrating on building our growth story
with the essence of our founding values has been paramount
as we move with the times. Our teams are constantly at work to harness
digital innovations in the mobile, internet and social media space.
We have continually explored new geographies and reached out
to newer audiences, while adding innovative ways of meeting
the customers. Our aim is to empower our consumers to access
our services from the comfort of their homes.
With increasing population in urban areas due to
better employment opportunities, the demand for a better lifestyle
has also grown, which has put pressure on the cities.
Meeting the demands for other aspects of a good quality life:
A higher level of education, sanitation, health care and
various modern facilities has attracted many who are
looking forward to the urban life – and as a consequence,
fuelling further demand for housing.
Our tailored products and services at attractive pricing and
the e-convenience of using our services, helps our customers
in making home-buying decisions faster.
We are grateful to have earned the support of more than
7.7 million customers who have gained from our conscientious efforts.
Exercising prudence has been a way of life at HDFC.
We have developed and built upon a strong core, a business
philosophy which includes sound principles, deep thinking,
and continued development of processes, products and services.
Our ethics and strong fundamentals guide our judgment and
aid practical decision-making, both in the present, and in the future.
The values we have chosen to live by, have held us in good stead
and made us the choice of customers year after year.
We have been taking initiatives for enhancing regulations,
collaborating with developers, training the sales force and
other channel partners, thus developing a robust and healthy
ecosystem. We have also ensured, while checks and balances
are in place, we serve the entire cross-section of customers from
the economically weaker segments to high net-worth individuals.
We continue to forge ahead with grit and determination to make
‘Housing For All by 2022’ a reality.
The lockdown has reinforced the value of the essentials of life – food, clothing, shelter and now, the internet. There can be no better security in life than a home. More than ever before, people will want their own homes. People will go to any length to hold on to their homes. HDFC is in the right business and we have done business the right way.

While restrictions on the lockdown have gradually lifted, the sense of unease has not abated. The world's focus shifted so suddenly to a future that is unpredictable, unknown and consuming in its entirety.
Never before has the global economy simultaneously seen demand and supply evaporate overnight. Millions have been rendered jobless for no fault of their own. World over, the pandemic has revealed the fragility of health systems and the lack of social safety nets. The key question is how are countries going to unwind from the ‘HHEF crisis’, which is a health, humanitarian, economic and financial crisis that has morphed into each other?
