PNB Housing Finance has declared a fraud of Rs 421.81 Crore involving borrower M/s Happy Home Corporation. Credit facilities were sanctioned and disbursed between 2016 and 2021. The accounts were already classified as NPAs and fully written off in FY 2022-23, so there is no further financial impact. The matter has been reported to NHB, and legal action is being pursued.
No fresh financial hit since loans were already written off in FY23. Reported to NHB and legal action underway. Sentiment impact likely minor.
