    IndusInd Bank may set up its asset management operations by end of FY25 or early FY26. In a call with media, Sumant Kathpalia, MD & CEO of the bank said that the bank may take 6–9 months to operationalize its AMC arm.

    To put things in context, IndusInd Bank had sought regulatory approvals to commence asset management business. On August 19, the Reserve Bank of India gave its nod to commence this business.

    While Kathpalia did not reveal further information, the expansion into AMC business is in line with the bank’s strategy to explore para-banking opportunities in the financial services segment.
