IndoStar Capital Finance has completed the sale of its entire 100% stake (45 crore equity shares) in subsidiary Niwas Housing Finance Private Limited (formerly IndoStar Home Finance) to Witkopeend B.V., an affiliate of global private equity investor EQT. The company received aggregate consideration of INR 1,705.95 crores for the deal. All regulatory conditions, including RBI approval and shareholder approval obtained on October 26, 2024, have been fulfilled. As a result, Niwas Housing Finance has ceased to be a subsidiary of IndoStar with effect from July 17, 2025. The net proceeds will be deployed to strengthen IndoStar's focus on its core verticals of Vehicle Finance and Small Business Loans.
The deal boosts IndoStar's liquidity and capital position, with INR 1,705.95 crores in cash inflows that the company plans to reinvest in its core lending businesses. This sharpens its focus on Vehicle Finance and Small Business Loans, which should be viewed positively by shareholders as a strategic portfolio rationalisation. Niwas has been removed as a subsidiary, so its financials will no longer consolidate into IndoStar's books going forward.
