ATS HomeKraft Sets New Benchmark, Repays Full ₹1,250 Crore to HDFC Capital Fund Entirely from Internal Cash Flows

New Delhi, November 24, 2025: In a rare industry move that underscores strong operational performance, realty major ATS HomeKraft has completed a full ₹1,250 crore repayment to HDFC Capital Affordable Real Estate Fund – 2 (HCARE-2) entirely through internal cash flows – marking one of the few instances in India’s residential real estate where a developer has achieved such a significant exit without third-party refinancing.

The repayment, sourced directly from project revenues, highlights both the sustained demand in the mid-income housing segment and ATS HomeKraft’s execution capabilities. The HCARE-2 portfolio with ATS comprised projects with over 7,500 units having a total sales value of approximately ₹8,000 crore.

The funding, largely committed during the pandemic slowdown, has been fully repaid ahead of its 2025 schedule, underscoring robust demand in the mid-income housing segment and the developer’s disciplined execution.

Getamber Anand, Chairman of ATS Group, said, “This exit to HDFC Capital is a testament to our 35-year legacy as a fully vertically integrated developer and underscores our focus on developing homes that are designed for the end user.”

According to Vipul Roongta, CEO and MD of HDFC Capital, and Pankaj Khanna, Associate Principal, Investments and Technical, HDFC Capital, the partnership reflects the fund’s confidence in developers who maintain execution discipline and strong consumer traction. “Most projects in the portfolio have seen prices nearly triple in 4–5 years, signalling strong unmet demand for quality mid-income housing,” they said.

The company’s financial strength extends beyond this single transaction. Recently, ATS also prepaid ₹190 crore to the government-backed SWAMIH Investment Fund I for its “ATS Marigold” project on Dwarka Expressway, said Udaivir Anand, further reinforcing the group’s robust cash flow position and strengethedned balance sheet metrics.

Looking ahead, ATS HomeKraft has marked its entry to the high-growth Dwarka Expressway corridor in Gurugram and is preparing a new launch in 2026 backed by ₹250 crore from H-CARE 3. With an expanding pipeline across North Delhi, Noida, Gurugram, Sohna, Vrindavan and Ghaziabad, the developer is consolidating its position as a multi-city player in the mid-income segment.

RBI Holds Repo Rate at 5.25%; Realty Industry Sees Stability as Growth Driver The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) decision to maintain the repo rate at 5.25% and retain its ‘neutral’ monetary policy stance in the third bi-monthly Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting of FY27 has elicited a measured response from the real estate industry. While the sector had hoped for a rate cut to further enhance home loan affordability and stimulate housing demand, industry leaders believe the RBI’s decision reflects a balanced approach amid elevated global uncertainties, volatile energy prices, and inflationary concerns. They noted that stable interest rates will continue to support buyer confidence, provide financial predictability for developers, and sustain the momentum witnessed in the residential real estate market. Mr. Kamlesh Thakur, President, NAREDCO Maharashtra “The RBI’s decision to maintain the repo rate at 5.25% while retaining a neutral stance reflects a prudent approach amid global uncertainties and evolving inflation dynamics. While the industry was hopeful of a rate cut, policy stability itself provides confidence to both developers and homebuyers. With borrowing costs remaining unchanged, housing demand is expected to continue its momentum, particularly in the mid-income and premium segments. The upward revision of India’s GDP growth projection to 6.7% underscores the resilience of the domestic economy. Going forward, as inflation moderates in line with the RBI’s expectations, there could be room for a more accommodative monetary policy. A future rate cut would further improve housing affordability, strengthen buyer sentiment, and accelerate investments across the residential and commercial real estate sectors.” Mr. Kaushal Agarwal, Chairman, The Guardians Real Estate Advisory “The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate unchanged brings continuity and predictability to the market at a time when global geopolitical developments and inflationary pressures continue to create uncertainty. Stable interest rates ensure that home loan EMIs remain broadly unchanged, allowing prospective buyers to make informed purchasing decisions without concerns over rising borrowing costs. The Indian housing market has demonstrated remarkable resilience over the past few years, supported by strong end-user demand, rising incomes, and growing confidence in the economy. With GDP growth projected at 6.7%, we expect housing demand to remain healthy across key micro-markets.” Mr. Shilpin Tater, Managing Director, Superb Realty “The RBI’s decision to maintain the repo rate is a balanced move considering the current global economic environment and domestic inflation outlook. Policy stability is particularly important for the real estate sector as it enables developers to plan projects with greater financial certainty while allowing buyers to benefit from stable lending rates. Demand for quality residential & commercial developments, especially in well-connected urban locations, is expected to remain robust. We remain optimistic that supportive monetary measures in the future could further strengthen investment activity.” Ms. Shraddha Kedia-Agarwal, Director, Transcon Developers “The RBI has adopted a measured and responsible approach by maintaining the repo rate while closely monitoring inflationary trends and global developments. Although a rate cut would have enhanced affordability for homebuyers, the decision to maintain stability provides confidence to both consumers and developers in an uncertain macroeconomic environment. The premium and luxury housing segments continue to witness healthy demand driven by aspirational buyers and strong wealth creation, while the broader residential market remains supported by genuine end-user demand. Stable financing costs, coupled with India’s improving growth outlook, should sustain market momentum.” Mr. Dhruman Shah, Promoter, Ariha Group “The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate unchanged reflects its focus on balancing growth with inflation management amidst ongoing global uncertainties. For the real estate sector, policy continuity is a positive outcome as it preserves financial stability and ensures that financing conditions remain predictable for both developers and homebuyers. Stable interest rates, combined with sustained infrastructure investments and urbanization, will continue to support residential sales.”
