Burman family takeover
In February 2025, the
Burman family acquired control of Delhi based financial services firm, Religare Enterprises and were designated as its promoters after almost 18 month of a takeover battle. "We are grateful to our regulators, shareholders and other stakeholders for their trust and confidence," the Burman family said in a statement. The Burman Group will work with REL’s leadership and board to reinforce its strategic direction and enhance long-term value creation.
The takeover battle for Religare began in September 2023 when the Burmans of Dabur group, having reached a 25 percent stake in the company, made an open offer to acquire an additional 26 percent. However, the senior management, led by chairperson Rashmi Saluja, opposed the offer, contending that the price of ₹235 per share undervalued the company. In a communication to the regulators, the then-board also raised questions about whether the Burmans meet the "fit and proper" criteria of the regulators. The Burman family said they are successfully operating insurance firms and an NBFC and hence meet all the criteria.
