Bankers are wary of the rising interest rates and fear that they will lose business in spite of the demand for housing loans, and rising ratio of non-performing assets (NPA).

The concerns are high interest rates on housing finance and rising realty prices. Reportedly, property prices have risen by 300 per cent in North India since 2001-02, 150 per cent in the West. This hike has impacted 22 to 23 per cent consumers.

Interest rates have risen by 4 to 4.5 per cent since 2004 which has led to a slowdown in demand for houses.
