Divested 24 million sharesStill an active investor in Indian tech

Singapore sovereign fund Temasek has exited its position in PB Fintech, parent of Indian insurance marketplace PolicyBazaar, netting nearly $290 million from the share sale.

Divested 24 million shares

Through its Claymore Investments entity, Temasek divested over 24 million shares at $11.90 each, offloading its entire 5.4% ownership interest per regulatory filings.

The exit comes shortly after PB Fintech posted its first-ever quarterly profit, with demand for insurance products driving revenue higher.

Still an active investor in Indian tech

Other backers like SoftBank have also recently lowered PolicyBazaar holdings. Despite unlocking profits, Temasek remains highly active in the Indian market across sectors like healthcare and e-commerce.

The fund aims to deploy $10 billion into the country’s high-growth consumer and technology play over the coming years.
