The market value of the merged entity will be close to Rs 12.8 lakh crore based on the market capitalisation of HDFC and HDFC Bank as of April 1.
The largest private sector bank in India with over 6.8 crore customers, HDFC will be merged with HDFC Ltd which is into home loans. This merger is likely to create the third-largest entity in India in terms of market capitalisation. HDFC said that its shareholders will get 42 shares of HDFC Bank for every 25 shares of the non-banking lender held by them.
"The proposed transaction would create meaningful value for various stakeholders including respective shareholders, customers, employees, as the combined business would benefit from increased scale, comprehensive product offering, balance sheet resiliency, and the ability to drive synergies across revenue opportunities," HDFC said in an exchange filing.
The market value of the merged entity will be close to Rs 12.8 lakh crore based on the market capitalisation of HDFC and HDFC Bank as of April 1.
