IDBI Bank
The strategic disinvestment of IDBI Bank is likely to spill over to the next financial year as the necessary procedural and evaluation processes are still underway, reported The Financial Express, citing sources. This would mean that the government’s non-debt capital receipts in the current fiscal year may fall significantly short of the Budget target. Since the revised estimates for FY24, no separate target for disinvestment proceeds has been kept. Receipts from the sale of government stakes in companies are now under the head “miscellaneous capital receipts.”
Samvardhana Motherson
Samvardhana Motherson International‘s arm, Motherson Electronic Components, has secured incentives under the government’s production-linked incentive scheme. In its BSE release on January 5, Motherson Electronic Components plans to invest Rs 1,900 crore over six years from FY26 to FY31 and create over 5,000 jobs at its Kanchipuram plant in Tamil Nadu.
Dabur India
Dabur India announced that it expects its consolidated revenue for the December quarter of 2025-26 to increase by a mid-single-digit percentage, while both its operating profit and profit after tax are expected to grow at a faster rate than revenue. The Ghaziabad-based fast-moving consumer goods company anticipates that positive macroeconomic conditions and recent tax reforms should help support ongoing demand recovery and improvements in revenue over the next few quarters.
HDFC AMC
HDFC Asset Management Company has forayed into the fast-growing private credit market with its new Structured Credit Fund-I, targeting mid-market companies with alternative debt financing. The company announced in its BSE release on Monday that the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group, will invest up to Rs 220 crore as an anchor investor in HDFC AMC’s Structured Credit Fund-I.
Central Bank of India
The Central Bank of India has released its provisional business figures for Q3FY26. As per these numbers, the bank had pointed to a nearly 16% growth in its total business, accompanied by an increase of nearly Rs 38,000 crore in deposits. However, it is important to note that these figures are subject to review by its statutory auditors. As per its past patterns, the state-owned lender usually announces its December-quarter results by mid to late January.
ONGC
Oil And Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) said it has signed joint venture agreements and capital contribution agreements with Japan’s Mitsui OSK Lines (MOL) to set up two joint venture entities in Gift City, Gandhinagar.
