In this episode of the Industrial Economist Tamil Podcast, we speak with Lakshminarayanan Duraiswamy, Managing Director, Sundaram Home Finance, about the changing face of housing finance in India. From the growing demand in Tier 2, Tier 3, Tier 4 and smaller towns to the challenges of assessing customers without conventional income documents, the conversation explores how housing finance companies are adapting to a rapidly changing market. 🔹 Why are smaller towns growing faster than metros? 🔹 How are traders, self-employed workers and informal-income customers assessed for home loans? 🔹 How have post-COVID trends changed home and land buying? 🔹 Why are employment opportunities and GCCs driving housing demand in smaller towns? 🔹 How should borrowers approach a long-term home loan and EMI commitment? 🔹 What role does RBI regulation play in interest-rate transparency and fair lending? 🔹 How are technology and AI changing housing finance? 🔹 What is Sundaram Home Finance’s vision for the next five years? Lakshminarayanan also discusses the company’s expansion beyond its traditional southern markets, the rise of its Emerging Business segment and the importance of remaining relevant, customer-focused and trusted rather than simply pursuing size. Watch the full conversation to understand how India's housing finance landscape is changing — and how the dream of owning a home is evolving with it.
