In December 2010, Share Subscription & Purchase Agreement (said Agreement) was executed amongst IDFC, NGAM, IDFC AMC and IDFC AMC Trustee. Pursuant to the said Agreement, NGAM acquired approximately 25% equity stake in IDFC AMC and IDFC AMC Trustee through its wholly owned subsidiary company - Natixis Global Asset Management Asia Pte Ltd. As part of the said Agreement, there was a requirement that both shareholders would review the partnership at the end of 5 years (subsequently extended).
Accordingly, IDFC has agreed to acquire through IDFC FHCL the balance (approximately 25%) in IDFC AMC and IDFC AMC Trustee from NGAM for cash consideration of Rs 244.24 crore based on the terms of the shareholders agreement. The transaction is expected to be completed by 31 March 2017, following which IDFC AMC and IDFC AMC Trustee would become wholly owned subsidiaries of IDFC through IDFC FHCL.
