Sundaram Home Finance has opened a new branch in Navi Mumbai, as the subsidiary of Sundaram Finance Ltd aims to double the disbursements made in Maharashtra next year.
The expansion plan was in the backdrop of the region offering potential to home finance, a top official said.
“Mumbai is the largest and fastest growing real estate market in the country. We currently operate out of Thane catering to the outskirts of Mumbai. This expansion in the business capital is driven by the growth of Navi Mumbai and the potential it offers for our home finance business,” said the company’s Managing Director Lakshminarayan Duraiswamy.
