Gruh Finance announced its merger with Bandhan Bank

Gruh Finance, the affordable housing finance arm of HDFC, will be merged with Bandhan Bank, the newest commercial bank. The move would help the Bandhan Bank to cut promoter stake from 82.3% to 61%. According to the deal, 568 equity shares of face value of Rs.10 each of Bandhan Bank is to be issued for every 1,000 equity shares of a face value of Rs.2 each of Gruh. The deal is subject to regulatory approvals. The swap ratio implies a 2.05% premium to the shareholders of Gruh. The combined entity is valued at Rs.84,000 crore. Post the deal, HDFC will have 14.9% stake in Bandhan Bank. The move comes after the restrictions imposed by Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Bandhan in terms of branch expansion and the remuneration of its MD & CEO Chandra Shekhar Ghosh, for inability to bring down promoter stake to 40% within three years of starting operations
