IIFL Capital Services Approves ₹2,000 Crore Preferential Issue to FIH Mauritius Investments
IIFL Capital Services approved a ₹2,000 crore preferential issue of 5.71 crore equity shares to FIH Mauritius Investments at ₹350 per share. An EGM is scheduled for June 1, 2026, for shareholder approval. The investor will gain control and become a promoter post-transaction and open offer.
The preferential issue of ₹2,000 crore and the subsequent change in control and promoter status will have a substantial impact on the company's ownership structure, strategic direction, and future operations. The mandatory open offer to public shareholders also affects existing minority shareholders.
The company is raising a significant amount of capital through a preferential issue, which is expected to strengthen its financial position and potentially lead to new growth opportunities. The acquisition of control by a new promoter also indicates confidence in the company's future prospects.
IIFL Capital Services Limited announced that its board of directors has approved a preferential issue of equity shares to FIH Mauritius Investments Ltd. The company will create, offer, issue, and allot 5,71,42,857 equity shares at a price of ₹350 per share, aggregating to approximately ₹2,000 crore. This issuance is subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals.
In connection with this preferential issue, an investment agreement was executed on May 7, 2026, among IIFL Capital Services Limited, FIH Mauritius Investments Ltd, and the existing promoters, Nirmal Bhanwarlal Jain and Venkataraman Rajamani. This agreement outlines the terms of the preferential issue and a potential acquisition of shares by the investor from the existing promoters. Consequently, the investor will be required to make a mandatory open offer to public shareholders.
Upon completion of the transaction and the open offer, FIH Mauritius Investments Ltd will acquire control of the company and be classified as a promoter. HWIC Asia Fund, an affiliate of the investor, currently holding 3.33% of the company's equity, will be categorized as part of the promoter group.
The board also approved amendments to the Articles of Association (AOA) to incorporate the terms of the investment agreement, subject to shareholder approval. An Extra-Ordinary General Meeting (EGM) is scheduled for June 1, 2026, to seek shareholder approval for the preferential issue and the amended AOA. The board meeting commenced at 8:20 a.m. and concluded at 8:45 a.m. on May 7, 2026.
