The Group’s investments span both India and foreign markets, supported by an international subsidiary in Singapore. SIL Investments has a long history of prudent financial management, reflected in over nine decades of corporate operations—its 91st Annual Report for FY 2024–25 continues to emphasize consistent compliance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) and the Reserve Bank of India’s Master Directions governing NBFCs.

SIL operates as a single reportable business segment under Ind AS 108—“Investment and Lending Activities”—defining its structure for performance review and resource allocation. By maintaining a high capital adequacy ratio and a risk-averse investment approach, SIL Investments has positioned itself as a stable and conservative NBFC with a sustained focus on value creation and shareholder wealth accretion.
