Umesh Revankar, Executive Vice-Chairman of Shriram Finance, emphasises that the transaction aims to enhance value creation for both SFL and SHFL, aligning with their respective long-term visions.
The acquisition comes amidst increasing interest in India's growing home mortgage finance market. The housing finance sector is expected to expand at 12-14% annually, requiring significant additional funding for growth.
Following the deal, SHFL will function as a standalone entity, with current management led by Ravi Subramanian continuing in their roles.
Warburg Pincus plans to invest ₹1,000 crore post-sale to grow SHFL's loan book. Shriram Group intends to utilise the proceeds to expand new financial services businesses and strengthen its balance sheet.
Shriram Housing Finance, with assets exceeding ₹10,000 crore, primarily operates in affordable housing, competing with key players like Bajaj Housing Finance and LIC Housing Finance.
