TVS Holdings to Acquire 100% Stake in Varthana Finance for ₹967 Crore
TVS Holdings Limited will acquire 100% of Varthana Finance Private Limited through its subsidiary Home Credit India for ₹967 crore. Varthana Finance, an NBFC focused on education lending, reported a FY26 turnover of ₹398.31 crore. The acquisition is subject to RBI approval and expected to close within nine months.
The acquisition of a significant financial services company like Varthana Finance, which will become a wholly-owned subsidiary, represents a major strategic move for TVS Holdings Limited, indicating a substantial impact on its business operations and market presence.
The acquisition is viewed positively as it expands TVS Holdings' financial services portfolio into a complementary segment, strengthening its market position and creating opportunities for future growth.
TVS Holdings Limited, formerly Sundaram-Clayton Limited, announced on July 15, 2026, that its subsidiary, Home Credit India Finance Private Limited, has entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (SPA) to acquire 100% of Varthana Finance Private Limited. This proposed transaction will make Varthana Finance a step-down wholly-owned subsidiary of TVS Holdings.
Varthana Finance Private Limited, a Non-Banking Financial Company, specializes in providing credit facilities and financial support to the education sector, including schools, colleges, and training centers. For the fiscal year 2025-2026, Varthana reported a turnover of ₹398.31 crore, a profit after tax of ₹18.65 crore, and a net worth of ₹574.23 crore. The company was incorporated on June 12, 1984, and operates primarily in India.
The acquisition, valued at ₹967 crore (subject to adjustments), is a strategic move by TVS Holdings to expand its financial services platform into a complementary secured and longer-tenure lending segment, strengthening its position in the Indian financial services sector. The transaction is expected to be completed within nine months from the SPA execution date, subject to the receipt of necessary regulatory approvals, including from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), and other customary closing conditions.
This acquisition does not involve related party transactions, and the promoters/promoter group/group companies do not have any interest in Varthana Finance. The deal is an all-cash consideration.
