MUFG is exploring a transaction to acquire majority control of Shriram Finance in a deal that could exceed USD 10 billion, according to a report published by Venture Intelligence on October 13, 2026. The report cited Mint and described the talks as exploratory.

Potential majority-control transaction

The reported transaction would go beyond MUFG Bank's existing position in Shriram Finance. Venture Intelligence said MUFG Bank completed the acquisition of a 20 percent stake in the lender for INR 39,618 crore in April 2026.

Shriram Finance is a non-banking financial company serving customers through consumer finance, automobile and commercial-vehicle lending, business finance and gold loans. The company also raises funds through fixed deposits and recurring deposits, according to the report.

What investors should watch next

An exploratory transaction is not the same as a signed agreement or completed acquisition. Investors will therefore focus on any formal announcement covering valuation, ownership structure, regulatory approvals and the timetable for a possible deal.
