Indian government gets bids for majority stake in IDBI bank
NEW DELHI (Reuters) -The Indian government has received multiple bids for a majority stake in IDBI Bank, an official said in a tweet on Saturday, after the deadline for expressions of interest closed earlier in the day. The government, which owns 45.48% of IDBI Bank, is looking to divest a 30.48% stake in the lender, alongside state-owned Life Insurance Corp of India (LIC), which will sell a 30.24% stake from its holding of 49.24% in the bank. Ahead of Saturday’s deadline, India’s market regulator this week allowed the government to reclassify its shareholding in IDBI Bank as “public” post sale, making it simpler for the new buyer to meet the minimum public shareholding norm.
