The company, in an exchange filing, said that the RBI has given its approval for a proposed investment by BC Asia Investments XXV Limited and BC Asia Investments XIV Limited, both affiliates of Bain Company.
This approval means the proposed acquisition of control and shareholding of up to 41.66% of the paid-up equity capital / convertible instruments.
However, there are certain conditions in place.
Here, any acquisition of shareholding of Manappuram Finance by the investors resulting in them crossing 26% of the paid-up share capital of the company (other than pursuant to conversion of warrants as part of the proposed investment) after one year will require prior approval from the RBI.

Manappuram is required to advise the investors to furnish an action plan to the RBI within the timeline specified by the RBI to ensure that there will not be more than one non-banking financial company of the same category/housing finance company within their group with majority shareholding and control.
The Kerala-based company also added that the RBI approval for Asirvad Micro Fin & Manappuram Home Fin for the proposed investment is pending.

After the said approval, Bain Capital will be listed as a promoter of the business and, together with the current promoters, will have joint control over Manappuram Finance.
