Dhanlaxmi Bank (DHLBK IN) share price has surged by 10% today on the back of RBI move to take it out of Prompt Corrective Action (PCA) following improvement in its financial ratios. We have mentioned in our earlier reports (please click here, here and here) about the helplessness of the bank as it couldn’t lend due to restrictions from RBI.

Now as the grip is loosened, Dhanlaxmi can resume lending activities and improve its financial ratios without adding any new capital in the near term.

We analyze the implications post PCA through this report.
