He described financial services as an area of significant opportunity in India and said wealth management was a logical next step after entering lending businesses five years ago through Godrej Capital, which includes an NBFC and a housing finance company. Godrej stated the investment in the wealth management business would be at most around ₹500 crore, focused on technology and personnel. Godrej also said Godrej Capital is expected to list within five years, by March 2031, with the exact timing dependent on market conditions and business performance. He noted that the group plans to enter allied businesses such as asset management over the next few years, but will proceed step by step. In Godrej Consumer Products, he mentioned a recent small acquisition of the men's face wash brand Must Talk.
