This merger is amongst the key strategic initiatives undertaken by us in line with the ?Right Structure? strategy that our company has been implementing over the last seven years; with the number of NBFCs reducing from 8 to 1.

The decision to merge two lending entities with the same NBFC ? Investment & Credit Company registrations and one non-operating entity with LTFH was taken after carefully considering market dynamics, internal synergies, and a vision for sustained growth.

All these benefits would lead to superior governance that would create sustainable value for all stakeholders.
