The following chart shows the financial institutes, banks and other specific institutes involved in financing the people for the houses.

Figure 3. 1
The following institutes are providing different Home Loan product to the different class of the people in the society and conduct the activity of financing and refinancing in the sector. 1. Scheduled Commercial Banks
15
2. Housing Finance Companies 3. Scheduled Cooperative Banks (Scheduled State Co-operative Banks, Scheduled District Cooperative Banks and Scheduled Urban Cooperative Banks) 4. Agriculture and Rural Development Banks
5. State Level Apex Co-operative Housing Finance Societies
Scheduled Commercial Banks The SCBs have the largest network of branches and are also the largest mobilizer of savings in the country. Since housing finance becomes a part of the 40 per cent Priority Sector lending, it makes business sense for banks to undertake this activity. Moreover, a favorable tax and regulatory regime, act as catalyst for doing business in this sector. Further, the earmarking of 3 per cent of incremental deposits of SCBs to finance housing activities has ensured availability of adequate funds for housing activities. Security by way of mortgage of property and robust demand has been major considerations for banks to lend to this sector. Housing Finance Companies To boost the housing sector there is a need to regulate and have a greater access of credit for housing. Thus a good housing finance system is imperative. Housing Finance Companies (HFC) need to be recognized as a part of total financial system and should be given a level playing field. Amidst liberalization certain provisions of the Companys Act 1956, such as, restrictions on interoperate loans and deposits continue to discriminate Housing Finance Companies against other non-banking financial companies. Also certain tax laws, such as deduction of tax at sources, restrictions on acceptance of cash as deposits are disadvantages to HFC. The Reserve Bank of India has put housing finance on priority core sector lending. In the developed countries, the flow of housing finance a substantial share of total financial
16
system. In fact, the savings for housing is among the single largest source of funds in their entire financial system. Schedule Cooperative Banks The concept of Co-operatives as an institutional mechanism for satisfying various needs of the people is premised on the principles of self-help as well as collectiveeffort. Scheduled State Co-operative Banks, Scheduled District Cooperative Banks and Scheduled Urban Cooperative Banks come under heading of the Schedule Cooperative Banks. Housing cooperatives have a prominent place in the cooperative movement in the country. Today, it is estimated that there are over 92,000 primary housing cooperatives with over 6.5 million members. The co-operative sector has played an important role in providing housing to its members and has made a significant impact across the country. The cooperative sector is expected to play a lead role, particularly in land acquisition, allotment of land and housing sites to encourage group housing and development of amenities in their projects, as envisaged in the National Housing and Habitat Policy. The National Co-operative Housing Federation (NCHF) was established as an apex organization for coordinating, guiding and promoting cooperative housing activities in the country. Agriculture and Rural Development Banks Keeping in view the housing shortage in rural areas, a few state governments, after suitable legislative amendments, have permitted the Agriculture and Rural Development Banks (ARDBs) to lend for housing. As the ARDBs do not fall under the category of either SCBs or specialized housing finance institutions, NHB formulated a scheme to subscribe to special rural housing debentures floated by ARDBs, backed by the mortgages originated by them, in order to extend financial assistance to this category of institutions.
17
State Level Apex Co-operative Housing Finance Societies Apex Co-operative Housing Finance Societies (ACHFS) at the state level are affiliated to The National Co-operative Housing Federation (NCHF) of India, which looks after their growth strategies, policy formulations and evolving housing programmes besides interfacing with various institutions to channel finances for these Societies for onward lending to the ultimate borrowers. In addition, NCHF also helps the ACHFS in improving their financial, organizational and technical capabilities. The primary housing co-operatives functioning at the grass root level are supported by 25 ACHFS all over the country with a membership of over 6.5 million. These ACHFS represent about 92,000 housing co-operatives all over the country out of which, about 31,000 housing co-operatives are affiliated to state level ACHFS for getting financial assistance.

Increasingly, there have been instances of dilution in due diligence on the part of lenders. Sometimes, loans are sanctioned without strictly complying with laid down rules, systems and procedures. This situation arises primarily out of fierce competitive pressures. It is observed that the growing customer expectations force the Prime Lending Institutes to compromise due to diligence, field verification process and appraisal norms, in a rush to sanction the loan at the earliest. Lack of Uniformity of norms amongst industry players While banks and HFCs are the prominent players, HFCs face few constraints. The regulatory norms stipulate 10% capital adequacy for banks whereas the same is 12% for HFCs. Further, banks have access to lower cost retail funds compared to HFCs. Uniformity in norms and hence a level playing field has to be ensured for a healthy housing finance system. These are newer challenges which need to be addressed and resolved in times to come. Industry Fragmentation The fragmented nature of the housing finance industry is a major impediment for its further growth. Despite this, the industry has managed to grow mainly due to consistent decline in interest rates, tax incentives given by the government and changing income profile of the Indian middle class population. Conflicting Interests While the private housing finance institutions are required to abide by the guidelines of the NHB, the general financial institutions, which include the commercial banks, follow the guidelines set by the RBI. Today, both these sections are competing with each other for the same housing pie but their functioning and lending practices seem to bear no similarity. ALM
21
Asset liability mismatch is one of the biggest risks housing finance institutions are confronted with. Funding of long term loans with short term deposits, leads to a mismatch between assets and liabilities that can be overcome by adopting appropriate asset liability management (ALM) techniques.
22
Future Outlook
The onset of year 2010 has brought in some good news for those who are dreaming of a 'home' with home loan rates as well as property rates spiraling downwards. The considerable reduction in rates is already beginning to affect deposit rates and will soon lead to a fresh round of rate cuts for both deposits and loans. In fact home seekers are likely to see single digit interest rates for regular 20 year home loans (not just for those below Rs. 20 lacs) in this quarter from at least the PSU banks. Recently announced stimulus package by the Government entails consumers seeking home loans between Rs. 5 lacs+upto Rs. 20 lacs a fixed interest rate (for 5 years) of 9.25% and nil processing and pre-payment fees and free life insurance to boot. However it cannot solve the issue of lack of risk appetite in the banks. Clearly, the banks want to play safe. On the other hand consumers The significant reduction in interest rates is likely to result in some increase in demand for such properties. Notwithstanding some corrections, property prices in popular areas continue to be unaffordable and we are unlikely to see new demand emerging till the prices reach some kind of equilibrium. So the number of consumers who will take advantage of this package is unlikely to be very high. Only if the property rates drop by between 20-25% in the middle and high-end home segments, one can expect a spurt in the business. In the meanwhile RBI can make the home loan seeker better equipped by issuing the licenses to Credit Bureaus so that the consumer's right to his own credit report can be activated. This will have a significantly positive effect on credit sensitivity in the country and bring home to the consumer the benefits of paying their bills on time as well as the cost of not paying them on time. Also make the necessary operational changes in Section 138 of the Negotiable instruments act to ensure so that people realize the seriousness of issuing cheques and the impact of dishonoring them. Finally, activate the Mortgage guarantee scheme so that the effective down payment can be brought down in a home purchase.This
23
will raise the customer's confidence level and this is the need of the hour! Clearly all things going right we should see a spurt in business in the last quarter of the year which is also traditionally a large demand quarter. Also await a further reduction in property prices before they will act on the property purchase decision.

From applying for a home loan to getting it involves various stages. These are:
Step 1: Application form Step 2: Personal Discussion Step 3: Bank's Field Investigation Step 4: Credit appraisal by the bank and loan sanction Step 5: Offer Letter Step 6: Submission of legal documents & legal check Step 7: Technical / Valuation check Step 8: Valuation Step 9: Registration of property documents Step 10: Signing of agreements and submitting post-dated cheques
37
38
Similar documents need to be provided to prove that applicant is actually staying at his/her current address.
Identification proof: Same as above, but with photograph. Sometimes, the same document if it contains a photograph, the current residential address and the correct age can be the proof for all 3 things. Employment details: If applicants company is not well-known, then a short summary about the nature of the company, its business lines, its main customers, its competitors, number of offices, number of employees, turnover, profit, etc may be needed. Usually, the company profile that is available on the standard website of the company is enough. Financial check: All the income-related documents submitted by applicant serve a specific purpose. The lending institution uses them to study financial status. The bank statements are scrutinized for:
Level of activity in the case of self-employed persons, this gives a very good clue about the extent of business activities. Average bank balance a cursory glance at the average bank balances maintained in a savings bank account speaks volumes about the spending/saving habits of any individual.
Cheque returns a small charge debited by bank in the statement indicates that a cheque issued by applicant was returned by applicants bank. Many such cheque returns can have a negative impact on applicants loan sanction.
39
Cheque bounces if cheques deposited by applicant are returned by the issuer's bank, they will be visible in applicants bank statement and again, banks have specific norms as to how many such returns are acceptable in a period of one year.
Regular periodic payments the existence of periodic payments to other finance companies/banks etc. indicate an existing liability and applicant will need to provide full details to the lender.
Applicants investments also come under the scanner. This helps the bank to estimate applicants ability to pay the down payment as well as applicants savings habit.
Processing Fee: Along with the application form and the credit documents, banks ask for a processing fee. This fee varies from bank to bank, but is usually around 0.25% to 0.50% of the total loan amount. The agent dealing with applicant earns a commission from the bank, which to some extent is also affected by the amount of fees paid. Most banks have flexible fee structures, and it is advisable that applicant negotiate hard to find out the bank's minimum possible fees though it is unlikely that a bank will agree to provide a loan without any upfront fee at all. Some banks have zero upfront fee loans, but that advantage may be negated as their other charges such as legal charges and 'stamp duty is normally higher. This fee is collected to maintain applicants loan account, and includes work like sending Income Tax certificates every year, maintaining post-dated cheques, etc.
2. Personal discussion
After applicant has formally and successfully completed the application process, all applicants have to do is wait till the home finance institution evaluates applicants papers. The wait normally lasts only a day or two or sometimes even less. However, some banks
40
insist on meeting applicant after receiving the application form, and before the loan sanction. This is to gather more details about applicant that may not be mentioned in the application form and to reassure them of applicants repayment capacity.
3. Field Investigation
Thousands of people apply for loans everyday. And however eager a bank is to complete its targets, every loan is a risk. So, it is only natural that it confirms or validates the details applicant provides. The bank checks all applicants information including applicants existing residential address, applicants place of employment, employer credentials (if applicant work for a small organization), residence and work telephone numbers. Representatives are sent to applicants workplace or residence to verify the details. Even the references applicant has provided in the application form are checked out. While this may sound irritating and an invasion of his/her privacy, banks are forced to undertake validation in the absence of any credit bureau. Once applicants credentials are validated, it helps establish trust between applicant and the bank.
41
5. Offer letter
Once the loan is sanctioned, the banks sends applicant an offer letter mentioning the following details:
o o o o o o o o
Loan amount Rate of Interest Whether fixed or variable rate of interest linked to a reference rate Tenure of the loan Mode of repayment If the loan is under some special scheme, then the details of the scheme General terms and conditions of the loan Special conditions, if any
Acceptance copy If applicant agree with what is mentioned in the offer letter from the bank, applicant will have to sign a duplicate letter of the same for the bank's records. Earlier, banks used to charge administrative fees along with the offer letter. However, with rising competition, administrative fees have virtually disappeared from the home loan market.
42
The title documents of applicants seller, which prove the seller\'s title including the chain of title documents if he is not the first owner. NOCs from the legal owners such as cooperative housing societies, statutory development authorities, the lessor of the land in the case of leasehold land, etc. NOCs are not required where the property is situated on freehold land and the entire land is being transferred along with the structure. These documents remain in the bank's custody until the loan is fully repaid.
Legal check
Every bank conducts a legal check on applicants documents to validate their authenticity. Even the draft sale documents that applicant will be entering into with seller will be scrutinised. The documents are sent to a lawyer in their panel (either in-house or outsourced) for a thorough scrutiny. The lawyer's report either gives a go-ahead if documents are clear, or it may ask for a further set of documents. In the latter case, applicant is expected to hand over the additional documents to the bank for a clear title.
In case of under construction property: Stage of construction is the same as that mentioned in the payment notice given to applicant by the builder. o Quality of construction
43
o Satisfactory progress of work. o Layout of flats and area of property is within permissions granted by the governing authority. o The builder has the requisite certificates to start construction at the site. o Valuation of the property in relation to other deals in the surrounding areas.
In case of ready/resale construction o External / internal maintenance of the property. o The age of the building. o Will the building last the loan tenure? This has a direct bearing on applicants loan eligibility, since the loan tenure will be restricted to the maximum age of the property as decided by the bank's engineer and this will impact applicants loan eligibility. o Quality of construction. o Surrounding area (development). o Whether the builder has received the requisite certificates for handing over possession of the flat. o There is no existing lien or mortgage on the property. o Valuation of the property in relation to other deals in the surrounding areas. o These inspections are carried out to protect consumer interests in terms of construction quality, adherence to local laws, approved building plans, etc. A technical inspection also lets the bank understand the progress of construction so as to release the staggered disbursements.

Since housing loans are cheaper than other loans, there have been cases where individuals have shown purchase of properties from related entities at inflated prices to obtain cheap loans. Since the risk associated with diversion of funds is higher than if the loan was used for genuine purposes, banks carry out an independent valuation to find out whether the transaction is in line with the existing market price of the area. Valuation of real estate as a profession is still in its infancy in India and is still nonstandardised. In many cases, the valuer determines the value of the property at an amount that is lower than the documented cost of the property and this would result in the loan amount being lower, since the bank funds a certain percentage of the cost or valuation of the property, whichever is lower.
This practice has led to severe consumer issues in an increasing number of cases, as the valuation is normally done only after the consumer takes a sanction (by paying a fee) and after identifying and committing to buy the property. The valuation issue rarely arises when a property is purchased through a reputed builder directly or if the property is pre approved. In both the cases, the banks would have already completed the valuation and therefore, applicant can safely assume that there is no difference between the documented cost of the property and the bank's valuation amount.

be done. Also, if any NOCs are pending, these need to be obtained in the format approved by the bank's lawyer.
11. Disbursement
After the bank has ensured that the property is legally and technically clear, all the original documents pertaining to transfer of ownership of property in applicants favor have been submitted and all the necessary loan agreements have been executed. Applicant will now actually receive the cheque in his/her hand. Before the big moment arrives, applicant need to submit documents to prove that applicant has paid his/her personal contribution towards the property, since banks normally finance only up to 85-90 % of the total cost of the house.
46
In case applicant is expecting money from other sources to fund his/her own contribution, need to provide sufficient evidence for the same. It is only after submitting this proof that the bank will release part-disbursement of the loan. The cheque will be in the name of the reseller (for resale flats), builder, society or the development authority. It is only in exceptional circumstances, that is, if applicant provides documents to support that he/she has made an excess payment from his/her own account then, the cheque will be handed over to applicant directly by the bank. Disbursement in stages Usually, loans are disbursed on the basis of the stage of construction of the property. So, in case of resale or ready possession properties, the disbursement is full and final. However, in case of under-construction properties, the payment is made in parts, also known as partdisbursement. Each option would have different disbursement processes. 1. Part disbursement: When a loan is partly disbursed, the bank does not start EMIs immediately, since it is calculated on the total loan amount at a particular rate of interest and for a given tenure. Moreover, it normally does not start breaking up the installments into its principal and interest components until the entire loan amount is disbursed. To overcome this difficulty, banks charge simple interest on the partly disbursed loan amount. For instance, if applicant have a sanctioned loan of Rs10 lakh, but the property is under construction and the bank has disbursed only Rs4 lakh, applicant will be charged a simple interest only on the disbursed amount. This process continues until the final disbursement takes place. The simple interest paid is called Pre-EMI interest or PEMI. At this stage, banks may take only around three to six post-dated cheques on account of PEMI. 2. Full and final disbursement: If it is a ready-possession property, the bank disburses the entire loan amount in favor of either the reseller or the builder.
47
The final disbursement does not end applicants relationship with the bank. In fact, it is just the beginning. And there are various issues / situations that arise in between the beginning of the relationship and its end. These include: o Payment Receipt o Repayment o Income tax certificate o Prepayment o Loan preclosure/satisfaction Payment receipt: Once the bank hands over the pay order to applicant, applicant in turn are expected to hand it over to the reseller or the builder. Applicant should get a receipt from them for the payment and hand it back to the bank, as it will become part of applicants mortgage documentation.
Share certificates: In case applicants property is part of a society, applicant will need to get the flat transferred to applicants name by asking the society to issue the share certificate in applicants name and recording the transfer of ownership in their books. This normally happens at the first AGM/EGM after the sale transaction. This transferred share certificate also happens to be a part of the mortgage documentation and has, therefore, to be handed over to the bank after the transfer takes place.
48
Repayment: The loan is generally repaid by equated monthly installments, using post-dated cheques. Banks usually ask for 12, 24 or 36 PDCs, after which applicant need to repeat the process until applicant have repaid the loan. Some banks may also insist on a cheque for an amount equivalent to the loan outstanding at the end of PDC period to ensure timely replenishment of PDCs for the next 12, 24 or 36 months as the case may be. In case applicants installments are to be deducted against applicants salary, applicant needs a letter from applicants employer accepting this arrangement and directly remitting the amount to the bank every month. This is possible only if applicants organisation has an arrangement with the bank for all employees. Some banks allow applicant to give standing instructions to the bank where applicant have applicants savings/current account to deduct money each month crediting applicants home loan account. Another possible mode of payment is by cash or demand draft (not all banks offer this). Applicant can deposit the EMI every month at the bank's office.
Income Tax certificate: Every bank issues an income tax certificate that serves as requisite proof to let applicant avail of tax benefits that accrue on repayment of a home loan. This will typically contain the total amount of interest and capital repaid during the year. This is mandatory to claim the tax benefit in respect of self-occupied property. Applicant will have to file this with applicants tax returns and submit this to applicants employer or chartered accountant to calculate applicants tax liability.
Prepayment
49
Applicant can prepay a loan either in part or in full at any given point of time. Applicant can also prepay it even when it is only partly disbursed. However, most banks have an upper limit on the number of times a person can prepay his loan in a year as well as on the minimum amount applicant can prepay each time. Until recently, banks charged a penalty for part or full prepayment. But increased competition has forced most banks to allow partial prepayment at nil charge. Most banks levy a prepayment charge if applicant make full repayment and ask for release of applicants property documents.
Loan pre-closure- satisfaction Applicant also has the option of completely repaying the loan at any time. Of course, each bank has its conditions for preclosure. Also, the loan will get completely paid off on the expiry of the tenure of the loan if applicant has paid all installments on time. Once applicant has completely repaid his/her loan, ensure that the entire set of original property documents is handed back to applicant. Applicant should also ask the bank for a No-Objection Certificate saying the account has been cleared. As an option, the bank may issue a consent letter stating that the property is now free from mortgage. If applicant has guarantors, the bank will issue a separate letter for each of the guarantors stating that their liability has come to an end. Only after applicant receive these documents can applicant say that the property is now completely free of mortgage. At this stage, in some cases, applicant may discover that the original documents have yet not been received by the bank from the registrar. In such cases, applicant will need to follow up with the registrar and get the documents from them directly by showing them a copy of the bank's clearance certificate. Sometimes (and we must stress only sometimes) the bank may misplace applicants original property documents leading to avoidable stress. In fact, the bank may claim that these
50
documents were never given to them at all. Hence the importance of insisting on a proper receipt of title documents while handing them over to the bank. Remember that receipt will come in very useful when the loan is fully paid off. Also, it is extremely useful when applicant want to shift applicants loan to a new lender.

There are many different products which are provided by the Banks and Housing Finance Companies in India. The reason for asking this question is to know the degree of preference towards Home Loan products by the people.

32%
From the above graph we can see that maximum number of people prefer the Home Loan for First Purchase in ready construction and under construction property. Out of which the preference for the First Purchase in ready construction is comparatively higher, that is 42%. This data shows that individuals are more attracted towards the purchase of house after they properly see and feel the house. 32% people have chosen the Home Loan for Under Construction Property, majority of them have approached Home Loan provider through builders tie-up. We can see that only 2% out of the sample of 200 have chosen Land Loans. These individuals are having income more than Rs. 5 Lakh. One of the major reasons for this is they get no tax benefit on principal and interest of this loan.
2. Type of Home Loan Providers
There are many Housing Finance Companies and Banks which provide home Loan products. The purpose of asking this question is to know the preferred source, of home loan provider, by the people.
74
Table 9. 2
41 84
We can see that popularity of Banks in Home Loan sector is more than the Housing Finance Companies. Banks capture 67% of our sample and 33% of people go for Housing Finance companies. The reason for this is, Banks are providing many products and people are already taking other services from Banks so Banks are easily acceptable by the people.
This question helps to know the preference of the people towards the Housing Finance Companies.
75
Table 9. 3
14 19 5 3
From the graph we can see that out of 41 people who have taken home loan from the HFC, 47 % have chosen LIC Housing Finance which is highest amongst the group. One reason for this can be the lower interest rate of LIC and brand name of LIC. Gruh Finance is also having the second largest portion of 34 %. In any other category 3 people have specified PNB Housing Finance Ltd and Bank of Baroda Housing Finance as home loan provider. 4. Banks
76
This question helps to know the preference of the people towards the Bank as home loan provider.

Banks
S.B.I. 36%
From the graph we can see that out of 84 people who have taken home loan from the Banks, 36% have chosen SBI. which is highest amongst the group Out of 31 individuals who have chosen SBI, most of respondents are Government employees and business man. From this we can say that popularity of SBI. is more in Private sector employees and Businessman. 31% people have who have gone for HDFC includes 10 Private employees out of which 4 are the employees of the same organization. Out of 19 individuals of ICICI 9 individuals are
77
Professionals. Any other category includes banks like ADC, Axis, Dena Bank , Bank of Baroda and Punjab National Bank and ABN AMRO 5. Amount of loan Although the loan amount depends on the income proofs, property price and persons ability to repay the loan amount, this question helps to analyze the number of people falling in to different ranges of loan amount.
Table 9. 5
Less than 5 Lakh 5 Lakh to 10 Lakh 10 Lakh to 15 Lakh 15 Lakh to 25 Lakh More than 25 Lakh
Figure 9. 4

From the graph we can see that majority of people prefers to take a loan of second and third range which is 5 Lakh to 10 Lakh and 10 Lakh to 15 Lakh respectively. These individuals are having the income range of 2.5 Lakh to 5 Lakh and few falls in the income range of
78
more than 5 Lakh. Through this analysis we can say that middle class people are more likely to go for home loans. Two individuals out of three who have taken the loan of more than 25 Lakh is for the Land Loan. 7 Females out of 11 females have taken the Home Loan for the amount which is less than 5 Lakh. So that we can see that Females are more likely to take Home Loan of less amount. 6. Time duration of Home loan There are many options available to home loan takers for deciding their time duration of paying the Loan and amount of EMIs. This question gives an in-sight regarding the time duration preferred by the people for Home Loan.
Table 9. 6
1 year to 5 years
5 years to 10 years 10 years to 15 years 15 years or more
figure 9.5
14 36 48 27
From the above graph we can see that 38% of people prefer the time duration of 10 years to 15 years to pay home loan. One of the main reasons for longer duration to repay the loan is
79
lower EMIs. As number of years increase the amount of EMIs decreases and this is more convenient to the middle class people. All the individuals of the category 1 year to 5 years have taken the loan of the amount less than 5 Lakh. The entire individuals who have taken the loan of more than 15 Lakh and few from the range of 10 Lakh to 15 Lakh falls in the time duration of more than 15 years. 7. Type of interest rate There are two type of interest rate available to the Home Loan takers. This question gives an insight towards the choice of interest rate by the people.
Table 9.7
45 80
From the above graph, we can conclude that 64% of people go for floating rate of interest. Floating rate gives flexibility and protection to the home loan takers as it varies according to
80
the market condition and economy of the country. The data shows that number of people are less who are going for fixed rate of interest. Mostly people believe that if they take the loan at high fixed interest rate and future interest rates will decrease then they will have to bear unnecessary interest burden. 8. Range of Fixed interest rate Interest rate is the important factor affecting the amount of EMIs. In this situation this question helps to know the people who are paying the fix rate of interest falling in the different ranges shown below.

The above mentioned data indicates that out of 45 people of this category, 55% pay fixed rate of interest which is more than 13%. Currently Interest rates for Home Loan is low in all Banks and HFCs. Because of non flexibility of fixed rates they are paying high interest rate and this is the major reason for the dissatisfaction of all 16 individuals who are discussed in QUE.10 (III)
2. The characteristic of floating rate is that it changes from time to time. This information gives the clear picture of the shift of Home Loan rates from one range to another.

Recession in the Indian economy and different steps taken by the RBI for the recovery of the same is having the positive impact on the floating rates of interest in Home Loan. We can see that 5 people were falling in the range of 9% to 11% of interest rate at the time of disbursement, but currently there are 24 individuals falling in this range of floating interest rate. At the same time we can not ignore that number of individuals falling in the interest rate range of more than 13% is the highest at the time of disbursement with 55% which is now 0%. There are 10 individuals who dont know their current floating rate of interest. This situation can be because of lack of attention paid towards the timely notice letter sent by the Home Loan Company. In SBI highest people have selected floating rate of interest, while in HDFC 19 individuals have selected floating interest rate

10. Rating for the banks procedure from 1 to 5. (Where 5 stands for the best) This question helps to understand the satisfaction level of Home Loan takers on the following shown indicators.

Processing Fees are almost similar in most of the Home Loan providers. 67 individuals have given average rating to Processing Fees. One of the reasons for this can be, when it comes to the charges or fees, people are not satisfied as they are less willing to pay such charges.

Fixed rate of interest is high on their Home Loan and they are more likely to go for prepayment charges rather than paying high fix rate of interest.
12. Home loan with Insurance cover Generally there are two types of Home Loan Insurance Covers, one is Life Insurance and another is General Insurance. Premium of this insurance is sometimes included in the EMIs paid by the Loan taker or sometimes paid separately, as per the choice of client. Insurance cover is decided on the bases of the amount of Home loan, age of the person, property price and tenure of the loan. Insurance cover cannot be more than the amount of Home Loan. Premium paying term is the tenure of the Loan and if property is under construction then, construction period is also added in that.

As it is not compulsory and it highly depends on the preference of the Home Loan taker to either take the insurance or not, majority of people from the sample of have not taken insurance with their Home Loan. One of the reasons for this can be increased burden of premium as person is already paying EMI and individuals are not much ready to bear extra payments.
People have responded for these questions for the transfer of Home Loan from one provider to another provider. This question is helpful to know the factors affecting the satisfaction level of the loan takers.

Correlation Analysis
The coefficient of correlation is the second measure that we can use to describe how well one variable is explained by another. When we are dealing with samples, sample coefficient of relation is denoted by r and is the square root of sample coefficient of determination.
Here we have used r to study the relation between income of respondents and the home loan amount.

12. Conclusion
The Government of India and the Reserve Bank of India have been constantly providing an enabling environment for the furtherance and development of the housing finance sector and Two Million Housing Programs which are being monitored annually by the Ministry of Urban Affairs and Poverty Alleviation. To give the boost to the economy and to control the money supply in the market RBI has reduced the interest rates for home loans. Majority of population of India consist of middle class people. This Housing survey reflects the same fact that it is dominated by the middle class people when it comes to take the Home loan. Recession in the Indian economy and different steps taken by the RBI for the recovery of the same is having the positive impact on the floating rates of interest in Home Loan. Popularity of Floating rate of interest is more compared to fixed rate of interest due to flexibility according to economic condition Main purpose of Housing Finance Companies is to provide Home Loan but still people are more inclined to go for a Bank when it comes to taking a Home Loan. Reason for dissatisfaction among the Home Loan taker is high fixed interest rate which is paid by these people so they are more willing for prepayment and transfer of Home Loan. Concept of insurance with Home Loan is not much popular in Home Loan takers, rather than believing it as a risk cover people are taking it as an additional burden on their ongoing EMIs. Above mentioned factors affect this sector positively or adversely but one of the major factors which is helping this sector to grow is rapidly increased population and people are accepting this as a need rather than a financial burden.
