PFC shares jump over 3% as RBI issues project finance norms for banks, NBFCs
By Aman Shukla Published on June 20, 2025, 09:31 IST
Shares of Power Finance Corporation (PFC) rose over 3% in early trade on Friday, reacting positively to the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) finalised project finance guidelines released on June 19. As of 9:28 AM, the shares were trading 3.19% higher at Rs 402.80.
The updated norms ease provisioning requirements for lenders, which had been a concern under the earlier draft guidelines proposed in May 2024. Under the new rules, banks and financial institutions must maintain a 1.25% general provision on loans linked to commercial real estate (CRE) projects during the construction phase. For CRE-Residential Housing (CRE-RH) and other infrastructure projects under construction, the requirement is set at 1%.
During the operational phase, the provisioning is further relaxed to 1% for CRE, 0.75% for CRE-RH, and 0.40% for other projects.
The final guidelines are notably less stringent than the draft, which had recommended a uniform 5% provision for under-construction projects.
