The aspirations to own a home is inherent in every household and all of us here are mindful that the country still faces an immense shortage of quality and affordable housing. Yet this goes to show that with supportive government policies, adequate availability of resources and supply of rightly priced homes, the demand for home loans will continue unabated,”

"The merger of HDFC ERGO Health Insurance with HDFC ERGO General Insurance is a moment of pride for us.

It makes HDFC ERGO the one-stop-shop for all our general and health insurance offerings. Health insurance is expected to be one of the growth drivers for the general insurance industry, and with this merger, we are now a dominant player within the health insurance industry,"
