India raises bank loan limits for M&A deals to 20% of capital, effective April 1, 2026.
The Reserve Bank of India has finalized new acquisition financing rules effective April 1, 2026, raising the lending cap to 20% of eligible capital from a proposed 10% of Tier 1 capital.
Banks can now finance mergers and acquisitions where a company increases its stake from 26% to 90% in a controlled entity, provided the borrower meets strict criteria including a minimum net worth of ₹500 crore, three years of net profit, and an investment-grade rating if unlisted.
The rules allow refinancing of target debt integral to the deal, expand eligible collateral to include government securities, mutual funds, and REITs, and raise loan-to-value limits to 85% for high-rated debt and 75% for equity funds and REITs.
Retail loan limits for shares and IPOs have also increased, with a 25% cash margin required.
The framework applies to infrastructure trusts and aims to enhance market efficiency while maintaining risk controls.
