Last month, Indiabulls Housing Finance reported a consolidated profit of Rs 296.2 crore for first quarter of FY24, rising 3.3 percent over previous fiscal. However, its net interest income fell 5.8 percent to Rs 546.5 crore.
The company said that with the completion of its de-promoterisation, its former promoter Sameer Gehlaut, who had set up the Indiabulls brand, has been classified as a public shareholder from February 2023 and was no longer associated with the company in any other way. "Therefore, the continuance of the brand 'Indiabulls' by the company has become untenable and it will thus be relinquishing the 'Indiabulls' brand," it said in an exchange filing.
Shares of the company are up 19 percent on a year-to-date basis, while the one-year return stands at 36 percent. It is still 12 percent down from its 52-week high of Rs 207.80, hit on August 31, 2023.
