The promoters, IndusInd International Holdings Ltd. and IndusInd Ltd., currently hold 14.68 per cent of the paid-up share capital of the bank.
“The promoters shall now purchase additional shares from the open market within the overall regulatory limit prescribed for promoter equity holding cap,”
IndusInd Bank said in an exchange filing on Friday, June 5, 2020.
In April, the bank had said that the promoters have applied to the Reserve Bank of India for increasing their permissible holdings to 26 per cent. On a fully diluted basis, the promoters have a holding of 14.68 per cent which is very close to the current regulatory cap of 15 per cent.
That apart, the matter of adjusted gross revenue (AGR) will be heard by the Supreme Court later today. The hearing may include the government's application that telecom companies be allowed to spread the payment of their dues over 20 years or less.
