RBI Declines Approval for Religare Enterprises' Proposed Demerger Plan
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has declined approval for Religare Enterprises Ltd's proposed demerger plan, which aimed to separate its financial services business into subsidiary Religare Finvest Ltd while retaining its stake in Care Health Insurance. Although the National Stock Exchange and Bombay Stock Exchange had no objections, RBI's approval was essential for the restructuring to proceed. Religare stated it will engage further with the regulator to provide clarifications following the RBI's decision. This is the first major restructuring since the Burman family acquired Religare in 2025.
