IDFC advanced 1.86% to Rs 82.25 after the company received approval from SEBI for change in control of IDFC Mutual Fund.
In April this year, a consortium of Bandhan Bank's parent Bandhan Financial Holdings (BFHL), private equity firm ChrysCapital and Singapore's sovereign fund GIC had announced the acquisition of IDFC Asset Management Company for Rs 4,500 crore.
IDFC had informed that the Bandhan consortium was selected through a highly competitive divestment process which witnessed strong participation from strategic players and financial investors.
The deal envisages continuity of the current management team and investment processes at IDFC AMC. This will be supplemented well by Bandhan's brand as well as GIC's and CC's international network and experience, which will aid IDFC AMC in further cementing its position in the asset management industry and propel further growth, IDFC said in a statement on Wednesday.
Established in 2000, IDFC AMC is India's 9th largest asset manager by Asset Under Management (AUM), with an on‐the‐ground presence in over 50+ cities and investors in 750+ cities and towns across the country. It manages over Rs 1,15,000 crore of AUM at the end of 31 March 2022.
