On May 26, 2025, TruCap Finance (TRU) announced its biggest corporate makeover yet: The Marwadi Chandarana Group (MCG) is acquiring a ~75% stake through a βΉ207 Cr capital infusion and secondary share purchase, kicking off a mandatory open offer. The existing promoters? Walking away with zero stake β and maybe a few regrets.
The real question: Can this sleepy NBFC with 117 branches finally become something bigger, or is this just another small-cap pump with a press release?
