HDFC Securities Report

LIC Housing Finance Ltd.'s Q1 FY21 operating performance was only slightly higher than estimates, but earnings were considerably higher than estimates, on account of lower-than-expected provisions (limited liability partnerships and tax).

Assets under management growth was the slowest since FY09, and the moratorium portfolio remained sticky at 25% of loans (77% in the developer book).

The company faces several challenges in the near term:

1. a sticky moratorium book (particularly in the developer book),

2. inadequate coverage with minuscule Stage I and II provisions and negligible Covid-19 related provisions, and

3. stiff competition from banks, which would constrain growth and net interest margins.
