Key Takeaways

  • MUFG Bank plans to invest ₹39,618 crore (~USD 4.4 billion) in Shriram Finance through a preferential share issuance. 

  • MUFG Bank will hold 20% of Shriram Finance on a fully diluted basis upon completion. 

  • The transaction is among the largest foreign direct investments into India’s financial services industry. 

  • The investment must receive shareholder consent and regulatory approvals before completion. 

Transaction Details

The Shriram Finance board has approved a preferential share issue of 47,11,21,055 equity shares at ₹840.93 per share to MUFG Bank. The resolution passed by the board provides for possible special minority protection rights for MUFG Bank, such as a seat on the company's board of directors and pre-emptive rights to other shareholders' shares, pending approval by the shareholders. This preferential share issue will comply with all provisions set forth by SEBI and the Companies Act.

Strategic Implications

MUFG Bank has proposed an investment that will leverage Shriram Finance's strong distribution capabilities in India, combined with MUFG's international banking expertise. The additional funding will increase Shriram Finance's equity and assets on its balance sheet and also help establish best practices across the organisation and its operations.

This agreement represents a strategic partnership, not a complete takeover by MUFG. The completion of the transaction is conditional upon regulatory approvals being obtained from the Reserve Bank of India and other authorities.

Foreign Direct Investment Context

The proposed investment is among the largest known to be made in India’s financial services sector for direct foreign investment. Recent market analysis indicates continued international interest in investing in Indian-based firms within India’s financial industry, with some of the largest transactions occurring in 2025.

The volume and scope of significant cross-border capital movement into India from major Japanese financial institutions has increased significantly from the previous year. This increase reflects significant changes in global investment behaviour.

Share Price Movements

Shriram Finance Limited share price stood at ₹908 per share on the BSE as of 19 December 2025 at 14:30 PM IST, up by 2.1% from the previous close.
