National Housing Bank likely to double affordable housing outlay for HFCs this fiscal
Reliance Industries moved higher.
· ET Stocks, Economic Times Markets
National Housing Bank plans to double the refinance and affordable housing funds for large housing finance companies. These funds will be available to companies seeking long-term and cheaper financing options. LIC Housing Finance, Bajaj Housing Finance, and others are likely to benefit from this increase.
The analysis
Against that, the stock is -2.5% on the day at ₹1,177.40, and has returned -7.9% over three months. It sits 26% below its 52-week high, which means a good deal of bad news was already in the price. The oil & energy sector has moved -0.3% over the same period, so Reliance Industries is running 7.6 points behind its peers.
For Reliance Industries, the question is how much of this is already reflected in the price and how much re-rates the oil & energy peer set alongside it.
Market context
- The company directly in focus is RELIANCE.
- Sector exposure: Oil & Energy, Banks.
