HSBC has downgraded Bajaj Housing Finance (BHFL) to ‘Reduce’ with a target price of ₹110, reflecting a downside from the current market price of ₹136.80. While Q2 results showed a healthy PAT, driven by income from assignment and lower credit costs, the brokerage noted that the company’s core-earning performance was muted.

HSBC expects EPS growth for Bajaj Housing Finance to slow down, citing factors like lower AUM growth, NIM pressure, and normalized credit costs. As a result, the brokerage has cut its FY25-27 EPS estimates by 1-4%.
