Grihum Housing Finance

What Grihum Housing Finance does

Grihum Housing Finance Limited is an RBI-registered housing finance company headquartered in Pune, India, and backed by private equity firm TPG (Texas Pacific Group). The company specializes in affordable housing finance for self-made individuals in semi-urban and peri-urban markets across India, operating a direct-to-consumer model branded "Go Home Loan – Go Direct" through 200 branches in 18 states and Union Territories, supplemented by WhatsApp-initiated applications and an online portal.

The company's product suite comprises six core offerings: Home Loans (purchase of new, resale, under-construction, or self-construction), Home Improvement Loans, Home Extension Loans, Home Construction Loans (including plot purchase plus construction), Home Loan Balance Transfer with top-up facility, and Loan Against Property (LAP starting at 12.0% p.a., Rs 5–25 lakh ticket, 5–15 year tenure). Loan tenures extend up to 30 years, with the company offering home loans even to applicants without formal income documents and supporting the government's PMAY 2.0 subsidy (up to Rs 1.80 lakh). Technology stack is described as standard lending systems with a CIO-led initiative to build modular IT on low-code/no-code platforms; the only AI-adjacent capability is a WhatsApp chatbot for application initiation.

Revenue is generated primarily through interest income on home loans and loan-against-property products, with ancillary revenue from processing fees and prepayment charges (zero foreclosure charges for non-business end-use). FY26 (year ended March 2026) reported revenue of Rs 1,248.18 crore and net profit of Rs 185.04 crore, against an AUM of Rs 9,374+ Crores and a 85,000+ customer base. The customer base is granular retail — informal-sector workers and small business owners (autorickshaw drivers, tailors, salon owners, FMCG distributors) — which structurally keeps customer concentration low but ties revenue to the affordability and credit performance of India's low- and middle-income segments.
