These restrictions, imposed by RBI on 5th March, involved financing against shares and debentures, including sanction and disbursal of loans against Initial Public Offering (IPO) of shares as well as against subscription to debentures. 

This action was necessitated by certain serious deficiencies observed in the loans sanctioned by the company for IPO financing and NCD subscriptions. The RBI conducted a limited review of the company’s financial records based on information provided by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). 

The company experienced a marginal growth in its total income, showing a year-on-year increase of around 1 percent from Rs. 1,067 crores in Q1 FY24 to Rs. 1,077 crores in Q1 FY25. 

JM Financial Limited (JMFL) plans to acquire up to a 48.96 percent stake from minority shareholders of JM Financial Credit Solutions (JMFCSL) and intends to sell up to a 71.8 percent stake in JM Financial Asset Reconstruction Company Limited (JMFARC) to JMFCSL, pending regulatory and other approvals.
