<a href="https://smartkarma.com/entities/incred-holdings-limited">InCred Holdings Limited</a> (IHL IN) operates as the parent holding entity of InCred Financial Services Limited (IFSL), an agile, tech-enabled, multi-asset non-banking financial company (NBFC) formed via the landmark 2022 reverse-merger with KKR India Financial Services. Backed by blue-chip institutional sponsors including KKR, Teachers' Retirement System of Texas (TRS), and Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA), the group has scaled its Assets Under Management (AUM) at a 43% CAGR between FY23 and FY26, exceeding ₹14,400 Cr.</li>
  <li>The firm maintains top-tier Net Interest Margins (NIMs) in the 8.5%–9.0% range and has delivered sharp operating cost efficiencies, with its cost-to-income ratio dropping from 56% to approximately 44% in FY26.
