Strengthening capital and strategic partnership
 
During the quarter, Sammaan Capital continued to strengthen its institutional and governance framework. Her Excellency Dalia Khorshid joined the Board as an IHC nominee director, while BDO was appointed as the Company’s internal audit co-sourcing partner. The Company also strategically realigned its control functions of risk, compliance, internal audit and cybersecurity to work under the supervision of the Board Sub-Committee and domain experts at IHC Centre of Excellence.

The remaining 21.98 crore warrants are proposed to be converted by September 2027, subject to applicable terms and conditions, for an additional investment of ₹2,291 crore. Upon full conversion, the promoter shareholding is expected to increase to 43.28%.
 
Expanding distribution and diversifying the product portfolio
 
Sammaan Capital continued to expand its distribution footprint, increasing its branch network from 217 to 245 branches across 20 states. The Company is deepening its presence in Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets, with a focus on reaching underserved customer segments and expanding its MSME franchise.
 
In personal loans, the Company is progressing from portfolio purchases towards building its own origination capabilities through its existing branch network. Its Business Instalment Loan (BIL) offering is being prepared for launch. In gold loans, product policies have been approved, with a soft launch planned for Q3FY27 and a commercial launch planned for Q4FY27, subject to market conditions.
 
Sammaan Capital also continues to leverage its established mortgage franchise through an originate-and-assign model. The Company has cumulatively sold down mortgage pools aggregating more than ₹1 lakh crore across 24 bank and financial institution partners, with less than 0.50% 90-plus days-past-due on sold-down pools.
 
Investing in people, technology and governance
 
The Company continued to build organisational capacity to support its next phase of growth. It onboarded 1,123 employees during H1FY27, with 95% of hires entering retail functions and 87% deployed at branches. The Company also strengthened its senior leadership bench with 20 senior hires during the half year.
 
Technology investments remain a key enabler of the Company’s operating transformation. Salesforce has been rolled out to pilot branches, with a wider rollout targeted during Q3FY27.
