Kotak Mahindra Bank informed the stock exchanges late Tuesday that it had accepted Manian’s resignation with immediate effect, stating that he had “stepped down to pursue other opportunities in the financial services sector".

IRDAI) is most likely to give the go-ahead to IndusInd International Holdings Limited's acquisition of Reliance Capital's three insurance companies within a couple of weeks, said people aware of the development. The insurance regulator believes Reliance Capital is a major non-banking financial company going through bankruptcy proceedings, which need to be closed within the time frame prescribed by the court, they said. Last week, the committee of creditors had asked IndusInd International Holdings (IIHL) to conclude the process by the May 27 deadline. However, IIHL had informed lenders that without the IRDAI's approval, it would not be able to conclude the transaction. On February 27, the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) gave its nod to IIHL's resolution plan worth ₹9,650 crore for Reliance Capital, formerly under the control of Anil Ambani. The NCLT directed IIHL to close the deal within a 90-day period. In March, in a letter to the administrator, the IRDAI had expressed reservations regarding IIHL's takeover of Reliance Capital, particularly about IIHL's diverse shareholder structure, under which no single entity holds more than a 10% stake. The IRDAI requested in-depth information on IIHL's shareholders, including their identities, countries of incorporation, citizenship, equity percentages and details of major shareholder groups.
