Private equity firm General Atlantic has reduced its shareholding in KFin Technologies by selling an 8.75% stake for nearly ₹1,400 crore through a block deal on the National Stock Exchange (NSE).
New York-headquartered General Atlantic, operating through its arm General Atlantic Singapore Fund Pte Ltd, offloaded more than 1.51 crore equity shares. The transaction was executed at an average price of ₹925 per share, bringing the total deal size to ₹1,399.99 crore. Following this open market transaction, General Atlantic's stake in the Mumbai-based financial services platform has declined from 21.89% to 13.14%.
A wide range of domestic and global financial institutions participated as buyers in the block deal. Domestic institutional investors included Invesco Mutual Fund, Kotak Mahindra Mutual Fund, Edelweiss Mutual Fund, Mirae Asset Mutual Fund, Bandhan Mutual Fund, Motilal Oswal Mutual Fund, and HSBC Mutual Fund. Insurance companies such as ICICI Lombard General Insurance Company and ICICI Prudential Life Insurance also acquired shares.
Additionally, global institutional buyers such as Morgan Stanley, Citigroup Global Markets Singapore, and Societe Generale participated in the transaction. Following the block deal, shares of KFin Technologies closed 1.37% higher at ₹961 apiece on the NSE.
This transaction follows previous divestments by the private equity firm in the company. In May 2025, General Atlantic pared a 10% stake in KFin Technologies for ₹1,790 crore. Prior to that, in May 2024, the firm divested a 5.8% stake for ₹712 crore.
Incorporated in 2017, KFin Technologies provides services and solutions to asset managers and corporate issuers across various asset classes. The company was listed on the bourses in December 2022 after raising ₹1,500 crore through an initial public offering (IPO), which was entirely an offer for sale by its promoter, General Atlantic Singapore.
"The partial stake sale by General Atlantic in KFin Technologies highlights a standard portfolio rebalancing strategy often seen among private equity investors following a company's public listing. The strong participation of prominent domestic mutual funds, insurers, and global financial institutions in absorbing this ₹1,400 crore block deal demonstrates healthy institutional demand and confidence in KFin Technologies' underlying business model within the financial services sector." — Dr. Shishir Gupta, Founder & CEO, StartupLanes
