The company has assets under management of Rs 23,617 crore as of 31 March 2022. It is headquartered in Gurugram with presence across 16 states and 2 union territories with over 200 branches.The deal completion is subject to regulatory approvals.

IIFL Home Finance has an active customer base of 168,000. It offers small-ticket housing loans, loans against property and construction finance. It also actively supports the construction of green affordable buildings in the country in collaboration with housing developers and other experts.
Nirmal Jain, Founder, IIFL Group said, "The investment recognizes IIFL Home Finance's position as one of India's largest providers of affordable housing loans and how well it is placed to continue to target the large, resilient housing finance market."
Monu Ratra, CEO, IIFL Home Finance said, "IIFL Home Finance has built a strong foundation and is at an inflection point as it leverages new strategies such as co-lending, foraying into more granular products and expanding reach across Tier II and Tier III regions."
IIFL Home Finance said that affordable housing finance in India is a $150 billion+ market currently that is projected to grow rapidly over the next decade. The sector has seen disproportionate growth owing to an increase in mortgage penetration, rebound in property sales, government & regulatory initiatives, and developer consolidation among other factors and multiple players have emerged to take advantage of the large whitespace where banks have limited presence. IIFL Home Finance said it aptly addresses this segment's unique requirements with its low-cost penetration model and industry leading turnaround time stemming from efficient processes that are centered on a robust tech backbone.
IIFL Finance is one of the leading retail-focused diversified NBFCs in India, engaged in the business of loans and mortgages along with its subsidiaries - IIFL Home Finance and IIFL Samasta Finance. IIFL Finance, through its subsidiaries, offers a wide spectrum of products such as home loans, gold loans, business loans, microfinance, capital markets finance and developer & construction finance to over 8 million customers.
