RBI files caveat after rejecting Tata Sons bid to avoid market listing
The RBI has rejected Tata Sons' request to stop being treated as a non-banking financial company (NBFC). That pushes the group's holding company closer to a stock market listing. The RBI also filed a caveat in the Bombay High Court, so it can be heard if anyone challenges that decision or seeks a stay. If you hold Tata group shares, watch for updates.
Key Statutory Highlights
- The RBI rejected Tata Sons' application to deregister as a non-banking financial company, a decision Reuters says was communicated to the company by letter.
- Tata Sons is currently registered as a core investment company, and RBI rules require non-bank financiers with assets above ₹1 trillion or access to public funds to list.
- Tata Sons reported standalone assets of ₹1.75 trillion as of March 2025, the latest data available.
