On Monday, Bajaj Housing Finance shares were listed at Rs 150 on the BSE, and the National Stock Exchange (NSE), surging 114.28 per cent above the IPO issue price of Rs 70.
Brokerage PhilipCapital initiated coverage on Bajaj Housing Finance with a ‘Buy’ rating. The brokerage sees an upside potential of 27 per cent from Monday’s closing and gave a target of Rs 210 per share.
Analysts at PhillipCapital believe that Bajaj Housing Finance has a higher return ratio than its peers as it sources around 40 per cent of its home loans from its parent company, Bajaj Finance’s customers. Additionally, Bajaj Housing gives around 90 per cent of its home loans to salaried customers which reduces costs leading to a lower expense ratio in the medium term and augments its risk-adjusted spreads.
