Over Rs 11 lakh crore in loans disbursed to women self-help groups by banks: Minister
New Delhi: Loans worth over Rs 11 lakh crore have been disbursed to women self-help groups (SHGs) through formal financial institutions under the Deendayal Antyodaya Yojana–National Rural Livelihoods Mission (DAY-NRLM), Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan said on Wednesday. This milestone reflects the central government's strong commitment under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi towards inclusive rural development, financial empowerment of women, and fostering self-reliance at the village level, he added. Under the Ministry of Rural Development's DAY-NRLM, rural poor women across the country are strengthening their livelihoods through robust community institutions. Through SHGs, they are being provided collateral-free loans, interest subsidies, and other financial support, enabling them to start their own businesses and increase their incomes. A repayment rate of over 98 per cent clearly demonstrates the initiative's credibility, discipline, and efficient management, said Chouhan. Appreciating the banking community's support, Chouhan said that banking partners have played a remarkable role in turning the dreams of millions of rural women into reality. The tireless efforts of 'Bank Sakhis' have facilitated SHG-bank linkage and ensured timely loan repayment. He further said that the main contribution of this banking partnership is the provision of easy loans to SHGs under the priority sector lending, along with accessible banking services for SHG members through simplified processes. The initiative also promotes Aadhaar and mobile seeding of bank accounts and enhances financial literacy. The repayment systems are being strengthened in the country. 'Bank Sakhis' are increasingly assisting with transactions, loan applications, and documentations, as well as creating awareness about insurance, pensions, and other financial schemes. Moreover, the Community Based Repayment Mechanism (CBRM) is being fortified to ensure timely loan recovery under this significant programme. The central government initiatives like DAY-NRLM and 'Lakhpati Didi' are transforming the economic status of millions of women in rural India, he mentioned.

OMC Power to invest Rs 4,000 cr to build 1k MW clean energy portfolio in 3-5 years
TIL Creatives Renewable energy production OMC Power is looking to build up a renewable energy portfolio of 1,000 MWp with an investment of Rs 4,000 crore across various locations in the country, the company's MD & CEO Rohit Chandra said. The homegrown entity which is backed by Japanese like Mitsui & Co. and Chubu Electric Power, aims to set up these capacities across four business verticals over the next 3 to 5 years. In an interaction with PTI, Chandra said, "OMC Power scaling rapidly with the ambition to build a 1 GWp clean energy portfolio spanning north and central India." When asked about investments, he said the company's ambitious plan will involve around Rs 4,000 crore investment. It will be a 10 times rise in capacity from 100 MWp (mega watt peak) operated at present, over the next three to five years, the CEO said. Sharing a break-up of the planned 1 GWp (gigawatt peak) or 1,000 MWp capacity, Chandra said around 600 MWp will be achieved from rooftop solarization for customers in healthcare space where it has a capacity of 75 MWp. Around 200 MWp will be added in its green energy for telecom vertical where the company supplies power to tower companies from 15 MWp capacity. To serve rural areas, the company plans to add another 100 MWp in smart grids where it has 10 MWp of operational capacity. OMC Power will add 100 MWp in solar EPC space for MSME and C&I (Commercial and Industrial customers) customers from 5MWp. All these projects will be worked out in Uttar Pradesh, Uttarkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, Assam, and northeastern states. When asked about source of investments, Chandra said, "We have decided to move ahead with the plan as OMC Power has turned profitable. The capacity addition plan will be funded through internal accruals, some portion will come from existing Japanese investors and through debt from financial institutions." As per company information, OMC Power has reported a Profit After Tax (PAT) of Rs 0.48 crore in Q1 FY26, marking a positive turnaround after several consecutive quarters of losses.

India's Housing Ladder is Missing its Bottom Rungs, Says BCD Group Vice-Chairman Ashwinder R. Singh
NewsVoir New Delhi [India], July 30: Warning that the country's housing ladder is losing its crucial first rungs, Ashwinder R. Singh, Vice-Chairman & CEO of BCD Group and Chairman of the CII Real Estate Committee, has raised a red flag over India's shrinking affordable housing supply. Affordable housing is not a second-tier pursuit, and the real estate sector must embrace affordability. Despite India's massive housing shortfall, developers are increasingly turning away from sub-Rs. 50-lakh homes. Singh points out that the trend is being driven not only by tighter margins and heavier regulatory burdens but also by the stigma that still surrounds budget housing in the eyes of the industry. "When a fellow developer recently asked me, 'When will you move beyond budget projects?' he thought he was encouraging me," Singh remarked, highlighting the misplaced perception that affordability equates to underachievement. The numbers paint a stark picture. Nearly half the homes sold in India's top eight cities in the first half of 2025 were priced above Rs. 1 crore, according to Knight Frank India. Meanwhile, affordable housing launches in 15 Tier-2 cities plummeted 67% year-on-year in Q1 2025, based on PropEquity data. Even in seven major metros, sales of units priced below Rs. 50 lakh declined by 14% in 2024, despite record overall residential sales. Singh identifies a "triple penalty" that discourages developers from building affordable homes. First, compressed margins and high input costs make budget projects commercially risky. Second, affordable offerings are seen as diluting brand value, which in turn affects pricing power. Third, capital continues to favour premium projects, with banks and funds applying stricter lending norms and lower exposure limits to budget housing. He further notes that compliance remains disproportionately burdensome, with budget projects facing the same regulatory hurdles as high-end developments. The lapse of the Credit-Linked Subsidy Scheme in 2022 and fragmented state incentives have further weakened the segment's viability. Yet, the market continues to signal strong demand for affordability. As per a blended estimate by CII-NAREDCO, 73% of incremental urban housing demand sits below the Rs. 50-lakh mark, predominantly driven by millennial families looking for shorter commutes. EY data also reveals that nearly a quarter of all mortgage disbursements in the past year were for affordable housing. Calling for urgent reform, Singh outlines five areas of intervention. These include bridging the perception gap through recognition of affordable developers via awards, ESG indices, and REIT weightage; addressing the capital drought through blended finance with first-loss guarantees; streamlining compliance via a digital single-window system with deemed approvals; improving land economics through density bonuses and transferable development rights; and confronting the brand stigma by mandating disclosure of affordability metrics in advertising. Reframing affordable housing as a high-impact sector is essential, Singh argues. "Affordable developers build social mobility; every 1,000 units create about 1,800 direct and indirect jobs," he notes, citing data from the Ministry of Housing. However, industry and media continue to highlight opulence over outcomes, showcasing marble instead of the multipliers that uplift communities. According to a 2024 Times of India analysis, the share of homes priced under Rs. 50 lakh fell from 63% of new launches in 2019 to just 47% in 2023, before plateauing in response to falling interest rates. Singh warns that cyclical rate cuts will not be enough to correct what is now a structural imbalance in the market. In his call to action, Singh urges policymakers to introduce a "Taxpayer Bill of Rights" for developers, setting clear approval timelines with penalties for delay. He recommends that lenders and funds ring-fence a portion of their annual real estate allocations for blended debt in the Rs. 15-50 lakh segment. Developers, meanwhile, must rethink affordable projects as modern communities--EV-ready, climate-resilient, and digitally connected--reflecting the expectations of the next generation. India's urban future cannot rest on luxury towers alone. "A housing ladder without its first two rungs traps families in rental stress, magnifies urban sprawl, and throttles productivity," he writes. If India aims for a $5-trillion economy, it must restore dignity--and profitability--to the business of building affordable homes.
