Chairman's Message
On behalf of Board of Directors, I present the 30th Annual Report and the consolidated financial statements of PNB Housing Finance Limited for the year ended March 31, 2018. It gives me immense pleasure that the Company is now in the elite list of large housing finance companies in terms of loan assets and deposits.

Managing Director's Message
Taking challenges in your stride and trying till you succeed are the two key attributes that the school of sports teaches us. As Michael Jordan once said, "Never say never because limits, like fears, are often just an illusion." Sport has a capacity to transcend barriers and to energize people. Goals are set high and there are no limits to the ambitions of achievement. However, these goals cannot be achieved alone. Partnership and cooperation are vital.

JAVELIN THROW
The javelin throw is a track and field event where the javelin, a spear about 2.5 m in length, is thrown. A perfect throw requires coordination between the mind and body. The athlete focuses on the target, paces with conscious steps and hurls the javelin at a precise angle to make sure it reaches the farthest distance.

POLE VAULT
Pole jumping competitions were known to the ancient Greeks, Cretans and Celts. The concept behind this sport is to efficiently translate kinetic energy accumulated by running into potential energy stored by the elasticity of the pole, and to gain as much vertical height as possible by jumping off the ground.
STEPPING UP EFFICIENCY
BASKETBALL
In professional basketball, the benchmark for comparing the overall value of players is called efficiency. It is derived from basic individual statistics: points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, turnovers and shot attempts. These stats account for both a player’s offensive and defensive contributions.

It’s about becoming better than one already is, for there are no confines to self-improvement.
