New Delhi, Jul 5 () ICICI Bank's board will meet on Wednesday to discuss a proposal to raise funds by issuing equity shares to strengthen its financial position. While announcing its earnings for the fourth quarter and fiscal ended March 2020, ICICI Bank had said it will look at further strengthening the balance sheet as opportunities arise. "A meeting of the Board of Directors of the bank will be held on Wednesday, July 8, 2020 to discuss and consider the proposal of raising funds by issue of equity shares and/or other equity linked securities," it said in a regulatory filing on Sunday. The issuance of shares will be inclusive of but not limited to a private placement, preferential issue, qualified institutions placement, further public offer or any combination thereof, it said. The private sector lender said the fund raise proposal is subject to shareholders' approval as well as regulatory and other approvals, as may be required. The notification, however, did not spell out any targeted amount on the capital to be raised. The bank's overall capital adequacy stood at 16.11 per cent, with the core tier-I ratio at a comfortable 14.72 per cent as of March 31. Its peer Axis Bank had last week announced a plan to raise up to Rs 15,000 crore in capital and there were media reports saying it is in touch with private equity funds for a fund raise. The filing said the capital raising discussion to take place on Wednesday is in line with a May 9 announcement wherein the lender had said that it will be looking to strengthen the balance sheet as "opportunities arise". On May 9, it had also said that the board has approved to raise Rs 25,000 crore by issuing non-convertible debentures in the domestic market through a private placement, and up to USD 3 billion through issuances of bonds/notes/ offshore certificate of deposits in overseas markets. In June this year, the bank had sold 1.5 per cent stake in its life insurance subsidiary for around Rs 840 crore with an aim to strengthen the balance sheet. Prior to this, the lender had informed about selling a little less than 4 per cent stake in its general insurance subsidiary for Rs 2,250 crore. AA KPM BAL BAL

ICICI Bank board to consider proposal to raise capital on Wednesday

Mumbai, Jul 8 () Second largest private sector lender ICICI Bank on Wednesday said its board has decided to raise up to Rs 15,000 crore in core capital through a variety of routes. The lender joins peers, including Axis Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank, Federal Bank and Yes Bank, who have either raised fresh capital or decided to do so soon, amid the COVID-19 pandemic. "The board, at its meeting held today, has approved raising of funds for an amount aggregating up to Rs 15,000 crore in one or more tranches," ICICI Bank said in a regulatory filing on Wednesday. The money will be raised either through a private placement of shares or preferential issue or qualified institutions placement (QIP) or follow-on public offering (FPO), or a combination thereof, it added. The issue will be undertaken subject to shareholders' approval through postal ballot process and other regulatory approvals. The board has constituted and authorised an 'issuance committee' to decide the terms and conditions of the proposed fund raise, it added. The bank's overall capital adequacy had stood at 16.11 per cent, with the core tier-I ratio at a comfortable 14.72 per cent as of March 31. Its standalone net had increased 26 per cent to Rs 1,221 crore for the March quarter. It can be noted that credit growth is very sluggish at present due to the overall impact on the economy because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Kotak Mahindra Bank raised over Rs 7,700 crore in a QIP in May, Yes Bank has begun a process to raise up to Rs 15,000 crore through an FPO, Axis Bank has got board nod to raise up to Rs 15,000 crore while Federal Bank has hinted at raising up to Rs 12,000 crore next year after getting a board clearance last month.

This government owned defence equipment maker has been a bad investment for shareholders since its listing over 2 years ago. While the government raised a little over ₹4,000 crore from the IPO, the shares have remained below the issue price for nearly the entire time. It did cross the threshold earlier this month, for the first time since the listing, but the exuberance lasted barely a week.

New Delhi, Mar 16 () Capital markets regulator Sebi has sought clarifications from merchant bankers of the proposed initial public offering of National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange Limited (NCDEX), which last month filed draft papers to raise an estimated Rs 500 crore. The IPO comprises a fresh issue aggregating up to Rs 100 crore and an offer for sale of up to 1,44,53,774 stocks by shareholders, according to the draft red herring prospectus (DRHP). In an update on March 13, the regulator said it is awaiting response to the clarification sought on March 12 from the lead manager of the public issue. However, details of the clarification sought for the IPO could not be immediately ascertained. The public issue is expected to raise about Rs 500 crore, including from the fresh offering of shares, merchant banking sources said. After BSE and MCX, this would be the third listing by an exchange. Build India Capital Advisors LLP, Canara Bank, Indian Farmers Fertiliser Cooperative, Investcorp Private Equity Fund I are among the selling shareholders. Jaypee Capital Services, National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development, Oman India Joint Investment Fund and Punjab National Bank will also sell their stakes. Some of the key investors in NCDEX include National Stock Exchange of India, Life Insurance Corporation of India and National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development.

The exchange offers services across the entire post-harvest agricultural commodities value chain by utilising a varied presence, which has enabled it to create a wide network of stakeholders and market participants. It also engages in research, training and building awareness in agricultural commodities market through NCDEX Institute of Commodity Markets and Research. The shares are proposed to be listed on the BSE and NSE. BJ ABM

BharatPe gets $20 million in debt funding from Alteria Capital and ICICI Bank — aims to raise a total of $700 million in the next two years

New Delhi, Dec 10 () Realty firm Gaurs Group has raised Rs 450 crore in debt from ICICI Bank and the amount will be used for a shopping mall project in Greater Noida. 
The project 'Gaur City Mall' is part of 237-acre township 'Gaur City'.
"We have successfully closed Rs 450-crore transaction with leading private sector lender ICICI Bank for our Gaur City Mall," Gaurs Group MD Manoj Gaur said.
"The transaction will cut down our interest cost and make our portfolio stronger as one-third of our total corporate loans will be LRD/LAP (loan against rental discounting/loan against property)," he added 
The group has repaid a major part of the Rs 640-crore funding facility it availed from PNB Housing Finance Ltd last year. 
Gaur City Mall project has a leasable area of 8.5 lakh sq ft. It also has 1,200 office spaces, 180 rooms-hotel and 120 service apartments. 
"At a time, when the real estate sector is passing through a challenging phase, the trust and confidence that ICICI Bank has shown in our Group offerings speaks volume about our robust business performance and strong credentials," said Vineet Singhal, Group CFO at Gaurs.
Besides Gaur City township, Gaurs is developing another township on Yamuna Expressway on a 250-acre land which it purchased from Jaypee Group in 2013.
Founded in 1995, Gaurs Group has developed more than 45 commercial and residential projects, having 51 million sq ft area. MJH MKJ
