Bajaj Finance to sell up to 2% stake in Bajaj Housing Finance to meet public float norms

Bajaj Housing Finance said on Monday that promoter Bajaj Finance Limited intends to sell up to 2% of its stake in the company through open-market transactions to comply with minimum public shareholding requirements.

Bajaj Finance currently holds 88.70% in the housing finance company, amounting to over 739 crore shares.

The proposed sale, capped at 166.6 million shares, will take place in one or more tranches between December 2, 2025 and February 28, 2026.

Bajaj Finserv—confirm they will not purchase shares on days when the sale is executed, as mandated under SEBI’s Master Circular.

The move is in line with obligations under the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Rules, 1957 and SEBI’s LODR Regulations, which require listed entities to meet prescribed public float thresholds, the company said.
