Axis Bank (AXSB IN): Last of the SUUTI Selldown Removes Overhang

By Brian Freitas

  • The Administrator of the Specified Undertaking of the Unit Trust of India (SUUTI) is offering 46.53m shares of Axis Bank Ltd (AXSB IN) at a floor price of INR 830.63/share.
  • This will take SUUTI’s stake in Axis Bank Ltd (AXSB IN) to zero and remove an overhang on the stock.
  • Coming in close to Bain’s partial stake sale last week, the stock could trade heavy. But Axis Bank Ltd (AXSB IN) still trades cheaper than peers.
