Hero FinCorp discloses Rs 1000 Cr fundraising plan

Hero FinCorp, the retail lending arm of Hero MotoCorp, has unveiled its plans to raise Rs 1,000 crore in a fresh round of funding from private equity (PE) investors.

Singapore investment firm, Temasek Holdings Pvt. Ltd., and India-focused PE fund, ChrysCapital LLC are in the final stages of talks with Hero FinCorp.
