Poonawalla Fincorp Limited (PFL), a prominent non-banking finance company (NBFC) under the Cyrus Poonawalla Group, recently reported a Total Assets Under Management (AUM) of ₹47,701 crore as of September 30, 2025. The company, which has been operational for nearly three decades and is registered with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), specializes in lending products tailored for consumers and micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). PFL is listed on both the BSE and NSE, operating with a workforce of 5,081 employees as of the same date.

Recently, Poonawalla Fincorp faced an unsettling situation involving a malicious email and WhatsApp communication that aimed to tarnish the company's reputation and leadership. The firm firmly labeled these allegations as unsubstantiated and defamatory, asserting that they were part of a deliberate campaign to mislead the public. In response, PFL has reported the incidents to the relevant regulatory authorities and the Cyber Crime Cell, seeking an investigation into the origin and intent behind these communications.

In the wake of these challenges, Poonawalla Fincorp remains steadfast in its commitment to integrity, transparency, and corporate governance. The company has urged all stakeholders—including the media, investors, and the public—not to be swayed by unverified information and to rely solely on official communications from the company. As it navigates through this turmoil, PFL continues to emphasize its dedication to serving the best interests of its shareholders and maintaining its reputation in the financial services sector.
