While broader markets showed signs of weakness, select housing finance stocks have emerged as strong performers today. Notably, Aadhar Housing Finance Ltd. and Housing and Urban Development Corporation Ltd. (HUDCO) are trading in the green, gaining momentum amidst supportive regulatory developments and corporate actions.

Aadhar Housing Finance Gains on Policy Tailwinds

Current Market Price (CMP): ₹452 | Stop Loss: ₹420
 Aadhar Housing Finance, a significant player in the housing finance space, surged over 5% intraday. The company, known for its home loan and loan-against-property offerings, is seeing renewed investor interest following regulatory tailwinds.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) recently revised its priority sector lending norms. It increased the home loan limit to ₹50 lakh for cities with populations exceeding 50 lakh, allowing more housing loans to fall under the priority lending category. This policy shift is expected to expand Aadhar Housing’s urban loan book significantly.

 Technically, the stock is retesting its resistance level, signaling a potential breakout after a recent dip.

HUDCO Rises Post Fundraising Approval

Current Market Price (CMP): ₹203 | Stop Loss: ₹185
 HUDCO shares are trading up by 4%, buoyed by board approval to raise ₹650 billion in the fiscal year 2025–26. This strategic fundraising plan, as disclosed in a filing to Indian stock exchanges last Friday, will be executed depending on actual fund requirements over the year.

Additionally, HUDCO’s board has approved a borrowing limit increase to ₹2.50 trillion, a substantial jump from the current ₹1.50 trillion, pending shareholder approval. The move positions the company for aggressive growth in the housing and urban development segment.

On the technical side, the stock has recently taken support at its 9-day EMA, suggesting short-term strength. Traders and investors are closely watching for sustained momentum in the sessions ahead.
