Indian government-owned development finance institution now focused on recovering legacy industrial loans and financial-sector investments.

Set up in 1948 as India's first development finance institution, it now makes few new loans. Cash comes mainly from recovering old loans and from stakes in financial subsidiaries such as Stock Holding Corporation of India, and the Government of India is its controlling shareholder.
