All our businesses are well-capitalised, with operationally independent and robust platforms and are poised for growth.
We concluded the stake sale in our wealth management business, at a valuation of Rs 4,400 crore - an endorsement of the quality of businesses we have built and the value we have created. We continued the transition to a capital light retail credit model with a focus on Housing and SME businesses.
