• The option to merge has been evaluated from time to time
• In the recent period, various regulatory changes for banks and NBFCs have considerably reduced
the barriers for a potential merger:

to 22%
.
•
Prevailing interest rates give spreads on reserves
RBI permits Priority Sector Lending Certificates to meet Priority Sector Lending (PSL) norms
Long tenor infrastructure & affordable housing bonds are exempt from CRR, SLR and PSL
