Yes Bank LIVE Updates
Yes Bank shares nosedived and sank 25 per cent on Friday. The development came after Yes Bank was placed under a moratorium on Thursday, with the RBI capping deposit withdrawals at Rs 50,000 per account for a month and superseding its board. With this, Yes Bank now will not be able to grant or renew any loan or advance, make any investment, incur any liability or agree to disburse any payment. The regulatory actions, undertaken by the RBI and the government, came hours after finance ministry sources confirmed that SBI was directed to bail out the troubled lender.
Meanwhile, defending the timing of Yes Bank's moratorium, Reserve Bank of India governor Shaktikanta Das on Friday assured swift resolution to the issues concerning the beleaguered lender. “The resolution (to Yes Bank) will be done very swiftly, it will be done very fast. 30 days which we have given is the outer limit. You will see a very swift action from RBI,” Das told reporters.
