H.E. Dalia Khorshid, Chief Executive Officer, Avalora Holding, said: “At the core of our vision for Sammaan is a management team that has navigated adversity with conviction, made tough decisions, and emerged stronger, more cohesive, and sharply focused—forming a powerful foundation for the future.

Our diligence was extensive, involving multiple rounds, independent advisors, and sustained monitoring. Post-investment, Avalora is deeply embedded across governance, operations, and strategy, with integration progressing rapidly. AI and technology are actively enhancing credit, customer experience, and productivity. Rating upgrades reflect stronger backing and governance, while Sammaan combines MNC scale with a startup mindset.”

Mr. Gagan Banga, Managing Director & CEO of Sammaan Capital Limited, said: “Sammaan Capital has entered a defining new chapter. With IHC Group as our Promoter, we are no longer just a well-capitalized lender — we are an institution built for scale. I want to welcome Mr Alwyn Crasta on the board as our Non-Executive Director. I also look to forward closely work with H.E Dalia Khorshid with her vast experience. The strategic investment by one of the world’s most respected groups positions us to pursue growth with a depth of conviction that was simply not possible before. With this the legacy chapter is firmly closed.

Our growth story will now be accelerated by the rapid adoption of technology and AI, using them as the cornerstone of our customer acquisition strategy across multiple product offerings, making us a full-suite NBFC underpinned by robust governance and risk management.

The aggressive moves we are making today — the capital from IHC and efforts taken in Q4 closes the legacy chapter once and for all. The product launches, the technology investments — are not ends in themselves. They are the building blocks of a far better tomorrow for our shareholders, our customers, and for all stakeholders..

The structural tailwinds are unambiguous. India’s retail credit market remains on a sustained growth trajectory, mortgage penetration stands at a fraction of what mature markets carry, and the long runway ahead is clear. Sammaan Capital, now a part of IHC Group, is uniquely positioned at the intersection of structural opportunity and institutional strength — and we intend to capitalize on it.”
