The Reserve Bank of India has extended the deadline for Shapoorji Pallonji Group to meet capital adequacy norms for its investment company, Sterling Investment Corp., to June 2028. The extension is part of RBI's revised framework for non-bank lenders. This regulatory leniency supports the group's recent $3.4 billion bond issuance. Sterling Investment, holding a 9.18% stake in Tata Sons, must increase its capital adequacy from 7% to 15% within this timeframe.
