As part of the integration and creating a unified workforce, senior professionals from DHFL will also move to new corporate premises in Mumbai next week, the company added.
Under what it calls 'Project Sangam', the company continues to hire extensively for retail operations pan-India and has rolled out 2,000 offers already in the last three months in the merged entity, the company said.
"This hiring momentum is likely to continue in Q4FY22 and FY23, thereby taking the overall employee strength to over 5000," the company said.
