Quarter read
What the record says.
HUDCO delivered a strong Q1 FY27 with robust sanctions growth driven by strategic MoUs with Gujarat (~₹1 lakh crore) and Bihar (~₹1 lakh crore) for large infrastructure projects including metro systems, satellite towns, and sports infrastructure for upcoming international events. The company guided for ₹65,000 crore disbursements in FY27 (vs ₹52,000 crore last year) supported by a ₹70,000 crore borrowing plan. Management emphasized maintenance of 2% spreads despite margin compression this quarter due to accelerated growth, with spreads expected to normalize by Q3. The sanction pipeline stands at ₹2.5 lakh crore with strong visibility toward the ₹3 lakh crore AUM target by 2030. On asset quality, gross NPA of ₹1,600 crore (net ₹82 crore) is under active resolution with most expected to be resolved this fiscal year. Foreign currency exposure is minimal with no FCNR maturities in current/next FY; the company has tied up $2 billion under RBI's forex window at 5.5-6.5% cost. Risk includes competitive pressure on state lending as rates compress and execution uncertainty on large MoU pipelines amid land acquisition and political delays.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- 25% increase from ₹52,000 crore disbursed in FY26, backed by board-approved borrowing plan of ₹70,000 crore.
- Current quarter spread compression due to accelerated growth; expected to normalize to ~2% by Q3 FY27 as earlier-disbursed loans start generating returns.
- Mid-course review planned for mid-FY28 based on FY27 achievement; management expressed high confidence in meeting this target.
- ₹1,100 crore at advanced IBC stage with orders received/liquidation ongoing; 34 outside-NCLT accounts nearing resolution through promoter engagement.
Risks flagged
- ₹2 lakh crore MoU pipeline in Gujarat and Bihar faces delays from land acquisition, social issues, and political factors. CMD acknowledged 'arithmetic fails' for 2029 timelines; projects typically take 5 years.
- Analyst raised concern about steep competition from Nabard and commercial banks in state financing, with rates having 'gone down so much.' This could threaten HUDCO's 2% spread maintenance.
- ₹200 million FCNR matures in 2028 without RBI hedging window coverage. While adequately protected currently, future rate environment remains uncertain.
- Analyst noted sanctions concentrated in sanitation/water sectors while other segments 'just started picking up.' Diversification dependent on state government project identification.
Key quotes
- HUDCO will remain there as a lender for Bihar government. On these lines we have signed the auction this MoU but at the same time if you see the journey of last 55 years starting from the consultancy to training to lending I think we are the best bet for the state government.
- We have changed our strategy and we are continuously working with the promoters the NPA developers to understand their point of view and how to resolve these accounts understanding their capacity and the capability to resolve these attacks and because of that we are nearing zero net NPA but we are trying hard to resolve all these assets.
- It is better to take five years kind of thing for these large projects because land acquisitions the social issues or political issues so lot of things are there so the arithmetic here fails that it will be done by 2029 but I'm sure once the project starts there maybe here and there but finally generally these large projects are completed within five years.
