Since April 2025, Indian markets have seen $2 billion worth of clean out trades, where promoters and strategic investors sold large stakes in major companies. Key deals include Warburg Pincus exiting Home First Finance for ₹1,255 crores, Ant Financial’s ₹5,624 crores sale in Eternal, and the Adani group’s ₹3,733 crores stake sale in Adani Wilmar. Other notable exits came from Flipkart in AB Fashion, Ant Financial in Paytm, and British International in RBL Bank. With investment bankers expecting more such deals ahead, the clean out trade momentum is set to continue.
