NEW DELHI: Shares of Dewan Housing Finance Corporation (DHFL) jumped 4% in Thursdays trade on an ET report suggesting NHB has not found any major deviation in the NBFCs books.
A final report is likely to be submitted soon, sources told ET.
The scrip hovered at Rs 133.80, up 4.57 per cent at around 09:33 am while the benchmark BSE Sensex was up 0.28 per cent at 37,859.72.
The four-member committee of the housing regulator checked the companys books of accounts in offices in New Delhi, Nagpur and Mumbai and is expected to submit its report in the next few weeks, ET reported.Although the inspection is more of a routine job by NHB, this assumed significance as the housing regulator wanted to investigate the allegations levelled against the company, one person told ET.A consortium of 33 lenders, led by the Union Bank of India is said to have given clean chit to the company after they heard that the auditor -- TP Ostwal Associates -- has cleared the company of allegations of wrong-doing.
The shares of DHFL opened at Rs 134 on BSE against its previous closing of Rs 127.95.
