Mortgage lending benchmarking helps lenders understand how their home loan products, pricing, approval speed, customer experience, and risk policies compare with competitors. As housing demand continues to drive long-term lending expansion, banks, NBFCs, and housing finance companies need clear market insights to stay competitive.
Competitive intelligence supports this by tracking competitor interest rates, loan tenures, digital application journeys, eligibility criteria, and borrower segments. These insights help lenders identify gaps, improve mortgage offerings, reduce processing delays, and design stronger strategies to capture demand in the growing housing finance market.
Data shows steady growth in mortgage lending as housing demand rises. In India, housing finance companies’ on-book portfolio grew around 14% year-on-year to ₹8.4 lakh crore as of June 2024, with expected growth of 12–14% in FY2025. Non-bank mortgage finance AUM is also projected to grow 18–19%, reflecting strong demand for home loans, loan-against-property products, and long-term housing credit.
