The details of the ratings are as under: Instrument Type Size of Issue (INR Rating Assigned Rating Action billion) with Outlook/Watch Non-convertible 15 IND AAA/Stable Assigned debentures* Non-convertible 44.55 IND AAA/Stable Affirmed debentures* (reduced from 49.55) Bank loan facilities 115 IND AAA/Stable Affirmed *Details of NCDs are provided in Annexure – 1. Detailed Rationale for the Rating Action The rating reflects Ind-Ra’s expectation of PNBHF receiving timely support in terms of liquidity and equity from PNB (as per the bank guidelines), with PNB maintaining its stake in PNBHF and sharing the brand name. The rating also reflects PNBHF’s position among India’s top housing financiers, having seen multiple business cycles. Moreover, PNBHF has demonstrated consistent improvement in profitability and asset quality and has achieved granularisation of the loan book. It has raised funding at competitive rates and maintained adequate liquidity buffers. Ind- Ra expects the entity’s credit cost to remain modest in the near to medium, given the tightened underwriting norms and retail & granular nature of its loan book. However, the performance of its affordable housing finance portfolio, is at a nascent stage with high growth, alongside the new sub-segment namely micro housing finance and emerging developer finance introduced in 1QFY27, remains a monitorable.

PNB’s ratings are driven by its systemically important position and the likelihood of the bank continuously receiving financial support from the government of India (GoI). The rating also considers PNBHF’s standalone credit profile. Detailed Rationale of the Rating Action The rating reflects Ind-Ra’s expectation of PNBHF receiving timely support in terms of liquidity and equity from PNB (as per the bank guidelines), with PNB maintaining its stake in PNBHF and sharing the brand name. The rating also reflects PNBHF’s position among India’s top housing financiers, having seen multiple business cycles. Moreover, PNBHF has demonstrated consistent improvement in profitability and asset quality and has achieved granularisation of the loan book. It has raised funding at competitive rates and maintained adequate liquidity buffers.

However, the performance of its affordable housing finance portfolio, is at a nascent stage with high growth, alongside the new sub-segment namely micro housing finance and emerging developer finance introduced in 1QFY27, remains a monitorable.
