With a shrinking pool of business NPAs, Arcil turns to technology -driven retainto repair, because her promoters want to sell a third of the company through an IPO.The shift marks a strategic overhaul for Arcil, which was set up in 2002 to clear the balance sheets of banks by gaining large stressed business loans. According to the Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP) design, Arcil is also planning to manage his recovery infrastructure as a service for banks that manage overdue shopping management.
