Advent to Buy 14.3 per cent Stake in Aditya Birla Housing Finance

Advent International (Advent) will invest Rs 27.5 billion (bn) to acquire a 14.3 per cent stake in Aditya Birla Housing Finance (ABHF), the companies said. The investment will be made through a primary share issuance by Indriya, an Advent entity. The boards of Aditya Birla Capital (ABC) and ABHF have approved the proposal, subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals and customary conditions.

The transaction values ABHF at Rs 192.5 billion (bn) on a post money basis, leaving ABC with approximately 85.7 per cent ownership and Advent with about 14.3 per cent. The capital infusion is intended to strengthen the company’s financial foundation and support deeper market penetration. ABHF will focus on expanding its presence in prime and affordable housing segments and in construction finance.

As of 31 December 2025, ABHF’s assets under management stood at Rs 422.04 billion (bn) and the firm recorded a compounded annual growth rate of 48 per cent over the previous three years. It ranks among the top three players in terms of incremental loan book growth and reported zero point five four per cent of assets in the gross stage three category, referring to loans unpaid for more than ninety days. Management has highlighted a pan-India distribution supported by an omnichannel sourcing network.

Advent’s partners indicated conviction in the leadership and in the underlying structural tailwinds of the mortgage market driven by policy initiatives and a supportive regulatory framework. ABC signalled that the capital will help the housing finance unit pursue the next phase of growth and increase market share. The companies said completion of the transaction will follow customary approvals and conditions. Timing will depend on regulatory clearance.
