The vibrancy is manifested in the intense competition among lenders and the wide choices available to borrowers. Lower lending rates, stable property prices, rising personal incomes and tax incentives for owner occupied homes have contributed to the increase in the demand for housing finance.

In the light of the vibrancy of the sector, the article attempts to capture the competitive scenario the Housing Finance Sector in India.
