What is the story about?
State Bank of India (SBI) and its subsidiary SBI Capital Markets together plan to dilute up to 1% stake in the National Stock Exchange (NSE) through the exchange’s proposed ₹30,000-crore initial public offering (IPO).
The bank is participating in the NSE IPO and will dilute a 0.65% stake in the exchange, SBI Chairman C S Setty told PTI in an interview.
”We are participating in that divestment. We propose to divest 0.65% and 0.35% by SBI Capital Markets because both of us hold the stake. So together, about 1% as a SBI group… it could be less depending on any other shareholders joining,” he said.
SBI currently holds a 3.23% stake in the NSE, while SBI Capital Markets owns 4.33% in the country’s largest stock exchange.
He clarified that there is no the monetisation plan for other subsidiaries in the immediate future.
Last month, SBI, along with its foreign partner Paris-headquartered Amundi, diluted around 10% stake in SBI Mutual Fund. The ₹9,800-crore public offer by the country’s biggest fund house was a huge success as the issue was subscribed 42 times.
Post-listing, SBI’s holding declined to 55.46% from 61.76%, while Amundi’s stake reduced to 32.56%, down 3.7%.
Highlighting the leadership position of SBI in the housing finance segment, Setty said the mortgage portfolio is set to cross an important milestone of ₹10 lakh crore in the current quarter on the back of robust demand.
The country’s largest lender had surpassed ₹9 lakh crore home loan portfolio during the last financial year.
”We should be reaching the ₹10 trillion-mark, hopefully in this quarter itself,” he said.
SBI has a market share of nearly 28% in the home loan segment, he said, adding that the bank has focused on making home loans accessible across the country.
The lender has more than 460 home loan processing centres across India, increasing accessibility of its housing finance products.
Setty said transparency in pricing and customer trust in the bank’s processes, including documentation and due diligence of builders, are among the key factors driving customers to the lender for home loans.
”People trust SBI the most when it comes to taking a home loan… that paperwork is properly done, including the due diligence on the builder,” he said.
He also emphasised that home loans should not be viewed merely as a standalone banking product, given their wider contribution to economic activity and multiplier effect on many allied industries.
”Home loan as a segment is very important for the economy,” he said, noting that more than 200 industries depend on commercial and residential real estate.
”In a way, home loan should not be seen as a standalone product. It is to be seen as an integral part of India’s economic growth,” he said.
