Last month, IDFC First Bank announced the completion of the merger of IDFC Ltd with the bank.
Post the amalgamation, there will be a simplified corporate structure at the Bank with no holding company.
In July 2023, IDFC First Bank announced the merger of its parent IDFC Ltd with itself in an all-stock transaction, marking another major deal in the Indian banking space days after the amalgamation of the HDFC twins.
IDFC began as an infra lender in 1997. It got in-principle approval from the RBI to set up a bank in April 2014, and in October 2015, it launched IDFC Bank when on-tap licensing began, following which loans and liabilities of IDFC were transferred to the bank.
In December 2018, it took over Capital First, a consumer and MSME-focused non-bank since 2012, and was renamed as IDFC First Bank and became a full-service universal bank.
