Bajaj Finserv Limited is an Indian non-banking financial services company[6][7] headquartered in Pune. It is focused on lending, asset management, wealth management and insurance.[8][9]

History

The financial services and wind energy businesses were transferred to Bajaj Finserv Limited (BFL) as part of the concluded demerger from Bajaj Auto Limited, approved by the High Court of Judicature at Bombay by its order dated 18 December 2007.[10][11] It is a financial conglomerate with stakes in the financing sector (Bajaj Finance),[12][13] the life insurance business (Bajaj Life Insurance), the general insurance business (Bajaj General Insurance),[14][15] and the mutual fund business (Bajaj Finserv Mutual Funds).[16][17]

Bajaj Holdings and Investments Limited (BHIL) came into existence when the original company separated its auto and finance assets. This new entity, BHIL is the parent company which holds 39.29% stake in Bajaj Finserv.[18]

Apart from financial services, it is also active in wind energy generation with an installed capacity of 65.2 MW.[4][19][20]

As of January 2026, Bajaj Finserv acquires Allianz SE's stake. Fifty percent of the stake in Bajaj Financial Distributors (BFDL), ended a joint-venture and took full ownership of the business [21].

In March 2026, Bajaj Finserv partnered with Microsoft Fabric and Onelake, and created governed foundations with data definitions , end-to-end lineages, and consistent access controls across the organisation [22]. This was to tackle the problem of inconsistent data definitions and fragmented systems due to increased data volumes. This complicated the organisational governance, and led to this partnership [22]. The data was standardised with this adoption. Data preparation improved by 40%, storage costs dropped by 30%, and audit exceptions fell by 25% [22].

Bajaj Finserv has bet on full-stack financial ecosystem to drive growth into their next phase. The group's strategy is focused on building a one-stop financial ecosystem [23]. This ecosystem is focused on lending, insurance, investments, healthcare and technology services. The established businesses provides a stability in earning, and newer platforms offer scalable growth opportunities [23].

In July 2026, Bajaj Finserv approved its plan to enter reinsurance business through a wholly owned subsidiary. Bajaj already has a solid presence in the insurance sector [24]. Bajaj holds around 77.33& stakes in Bajaj General Insurance and Bajaj Life Insurance, which were both operating as joint ventures with Allianz. They also have a 51.3% staeke in the lending arm of Bajaj Finance [24]. The same would open the market up, and would make the firm a small but growing part of India's reinsurance market. As of the time of the announcement, GIC Re is the only domestic reinsurer of India [24].

As of 1 July 2025, the Bajaj Group holds a 55% stake in the company.[25]
