flag Axis Bank pauses $350M–$400M sale of Axis Finance stake due to new RBI rules allowing retained ownership.

flag Axis Bank has paused its planned sale of a 20% stake in its consumer lending unit, Axis Finance, following revised regulations from India's Reserve Bank of India that now allow banks to retain non-bank subsidiaries if properly ring-fenced. flag The change, effective December 2025, reversed earlier rules that threatened forced divestitures. flag With Axis Finance well-capitalized and no urgent need for external funding, the bank may instead inject fresh capital. flag A revised growth plan is due in April 2026. flag The sale, initially valued at $350 million to $400 million, had drawn limited interest, with Kedaara Capital reportedly uninterested in bids. flag Morgan Stanley was previously appointed as banker.
