Reliance Capital today said it has received Rs 378 crore from Nippon Life Insurance after the Japanese firm increased its stake in their asset management business to 49 per cent.
The Anil Ambani group firm, Reliance Capital, will book capital gains on this final transaction in the quarter ending September 30, 2017.
As on March 2017, Reliance Nippon Life Asset Management (RNAM) had an asset base of Rs 3.6 lakh crore (about USD 55 billion).
Nippon Life Insurance is an over 125 years old insurer and a Global Fortune 500 company that manages over Rs 34.45 lakh crore (USD 530 billion) in assets.
