FinCorp and its affiliates in an all cash deal, GE Capital India said in a statement.
This marks GE Capital's exit from the mortgage loan business in India.

"We will continue to focus on growing our commercial finance business and credit card joint venture in India, leveraging our global expertise in certain specific product and process domains," he said.
Until the completion of the transactions, GE Money mortgage customers in India will continue to be serviced by the GE Money team.
