SBI said based on the assumptions of growth in risk-weighted assets and plough-back of profits, it will require additional capital during FY16 and FY17.
The bank requires adequate capital to match the anticipated growth in assets and comply with the stipulated level of capital adequacy, especially on account of requirement of the capital conservation buffer, domestic-systemically important bank capital requirement and Counter Cyclical Capital Buffer (CCCB). Considering the business growth during the current year as well as that for the years to come, SBI said there is a need for higher capital.
Targeting the end state capital ratios, at the initial stage, will ensure smooth transition to FY19 capital requirements.
The bank’s overall Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR), as on March, 31, 2015, stood at 12 per cent, with CET-I capital at 9.31 per cent. The central board of the bank has decided that it should maintain minimum CAR at 12 per cent with tier-I capital at a minimum of 9 per cent.
SBI said in case of QIP, the allotment of equity shares will only be made to Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs) at a discount not exceeding 5 per cent, if any, on the price determined in accordance with the pricing formula under SEBI regulations, or such discount as may be specified by SEBI.
