The retail-focused NBFC InCred Holdings has moved one step closer to entering the stock market by recently filing its Updated Draft-Red-Herring-Prospectus (UDRHP) with the Securities and Exchange Board of India. The company filed its IPO papers confidentially back in November 2025 and received SEBI's in-principle approval in February 2026.
As per reports, the company is planning to raise ₹1,250 crore through a fresh issue of equity shares, along with an Offer for Sale (OFS) of up to 9.9 crore by existing shareholders.

The Incred Group was founded by Bhupinder Singh (Founder & Group CEO) in 2011. The Incred Group is a diversified financial services group operating across three key businesses:
