NEW DELHI/MUMBAI, Oct 20 (Reuters) - India's Punjab National Bank (PNB) PNBK.NS will face an estimated 90 billion-rupee ($1.03 billion) impact as the lender transitions to a central bank-mandated credit loss framework by 2031, its chief executive said on Monday.

The country's third-largest state-owned lender by market capitalisation is one of the first to disclose an estimate on the likely effect of the rules, issued by the Reserve Bank of India earlier this month, to its balance sheet.

"The impact comes to around 90 billion rupees," said Ashok Chandra, PNB's managing director and CEO in an interview with Reuters. "The bank has done a rough estimate as this (new credit rules) was already in the pipeline ... I don't see any further deviation."

The RBI's draft guidelines require banks to transition to an expected credit loss (ECL) framework, wherein funds are set aside to cover likely risk of default, over a five-year period starting April 1, 2027. At present, provisions for bad loans are made when a loan becomes overdue.

Top Indian banks, including the State Bank of India SBI.NS, are in the process of evaluating the impact from the transition.

As per internal estimates, Chandra said, the New Delhi-based bank will face an impact of around 0.85 percentage points to its capital to risk assets ratio (CRAR), a metric that measures bank's capital adequacy.

PNB's CRAR was at 17.19%, as on September 30, according to the company's presentation. As per RBI's latest financial stability report, Indian commercial banks had a CRAR of 17.3% at March-end.

The impact will be offset by the profit generated from the bank's operations in the normal course, said Chandra.

"I think we will be able to manage with our internal accrual itself. Bank is well poised to take care of all requirements which is going to come in future."

For PNB, a majority of these provisions will be for stage-two assets in its retail, agriculture and small and medium enterprises portfolios, Chandra said.

Stage-two assets refer to high-risk loans where the borrower has missed a repayment deadline but has not turned into a non-performing asset.

The lender on Saturday reported a net profit of 49.04 billion rupees for the second quarter, up 14% from a year earlier. Chandra projects the bank to post a net profit of over 150 billion rupees for the 2026 financial year.

BENGALURU, Oct 14 (Reuters) - Canara HSBC Life Insurance Company's $283 million initial public offering (IPO) was fully subscribed on the third day of bidding on Tuesday, driven by robust interest from institutional buyers.

The insurer, a joint venture between India's Canara Bank CNBK.NS and HSBC Insurance (Asia-Pacific) Holdings, received bids worth 18.97 billion rupees ($213.7 million) for 178.9 million shares as of 1:30 p.m. IST, above the 166.7 million shares on offer in the 100-106 rupees band, per exchange data.

This excludes the 7.5 billion rupees raised through anchor investors, including Societe Generale, ICICI Prudential Asset Management and HDFC Mutual Fund last week.

The IPO will value Canara HSBC Life Insurance at up to 100.7 billion rupees ($1.14 billion) at the top of the price range, compared with larger peers HDFC Life's market value of 1.7 trillion rupees and SBI Life's 1.8 trillion rupees, per Reuters calculations.

The demand was tepid in the first two days until qualified institutional buyers showed up on the final day, bidding nearly three-times their quota. Overall, 47.2 million shares were set aside for such investors.

Retail demand remain subdued, with the portion subscribed just 0.35 times.

Canara HSBC Life's offering was only an offer for sale of up to 237.5 million shares. The company will not receive any proceeds from the IPO.

Selling shareholders Canara Bank, HSBC Insurance (Asia-Pacific) and Punjab National Bank are selling 137.8 million shares, 4.8 million shares and 95 million shares, respectively.

India is seeing a flurry of IPO activity, with non-bank lender Tata Capital TATC.NS and consumer appliance maker LG Electronics India LGEL.NS debuting this week.

Last week, LG Electronics India's $1.3 billion IPO garnered bids worth nearly $50 billion, becoming India's most subscribed billion-dollar IPO in nearly 20 years.

Overall, the primary market fundraise in 2025 will likely surpass last year's $20.5 billion record.

An IPO of another Canara Bank-backed company, Canara Robeco Asset Management, was fully subscribed on the final day of the bidding, driven by institutional investors. The listing will likely be on October 16.

MUMBAI, Oct 3 (Reuters) - At least four major state-owned Indian banks have increased their internal limits for investing in state bonds following discussions with the Reserve Bank of India last month, according to five treasury officials aware of the decisions.

Bank of Baroda BOB.NS, Punjab National Bank PNBK.NS, Canara Bank CNBK.NS and Union Bank of India UNBK.NS - among India's top five government-owned lenders by assets - have raised their investment caps by 5 to 20 percentage points, the sources said.

"Most of the top five-six banks barring one have raised the internal cap that they had set for taking exposure to state debt in treasury books after a round of consultations and meetings with the central bank," one of the officials said.

The sources requested anonymity as they are not authorised to speak to media. The banks did not respond to emailed queries.

Indian banks, including both private and public sector entities, are significant buyers of state-issued bonds, collectively holding nearly 36% of states' debt as of June, according to regulatory data.

BORROWING COST RELIEF

Indian states are projected to raise a record 12 trillion rupees ($135.2 billion) through bond issuances in the current financial year, with 7 trillion rupees expected between October and March.

Reduced buying by banks, insurers, and pension funds had driven yields on state bonds higher by 40 to 70 basis points during the three months ending September, with several auctions undersubscribed.

Market participants now anticipate improved bank participation at auctions, which could ease yields. Banks had also sought changes to the auction process to mitigate mark-to-market losses on their portfolios.

July 18 (Reuters) - India's central bank is close to finalising rules for banks and financial institutions to disclose and manage risks from climate change, three sources aware of the matter said.

The move runs counter to several top global banks including JP Morgan, Citibank, Morgan Stanley and HSBC, which have decided to scale back their climate commitments with the re-election of climate-sceptic U.S. President Donald Trump being seen as a trigger.

Getting a better idea of how, and to what extent, money is flowing to green investments is a central part of global efforts to move to a low-carbon economy, with countries from the UK to Japan making such disclosures mandatory.

The Indian central bank's norms, which have been in the works since 2022, are expected to ask banks and financial institutions to make regular disclosures about climate-related risks in their loan portfolios along with mitigation strategies and targets, the sources said.

The disclosures are likely to be on a voluntary basis from fiscal year 2027 and then mandatory from fiscal year 2028. India's financial year runs from April till March.

Banks will also be asked to conduct periodic stress tests to gauge the impact of adverse climate events such as floods, heatwaves and cyclones on borrowers and the economy, based on a guidance note which the central bank is also likely to issue soon, the sources added.

All three sources requested anonymity as they are not authorised to speak with media.

The RBI did not respond to an email from Reuters.

The central bank's decision to move forward with the rules has not been previously reported.

The Reserve Bank of India has previously recognised climate change as a source of major financial concern, and released a draft standard disclosure framework in February 2024 for public feedback.

“The signal from the central bank based on recent meetings is that the detailed norms are almost finalised and are expected very soon,” the first source said.

Many banks have already started collating data and setting targets to meet the disclosure standards, the source said.

Some large banks have put out tenders to bring in climate consultants to help them with the disclosures, according to public documents.

ASSESSING BORROWERS FOR CLIMATE RISK

The RBI's decision to move ahead with climate disclosures for its banks comes soon after India released a draft framework aimed at facilitating a greater flow of resources to climate-friendly sectors.

India is also gearing up to publish a new national emissions-reduction target ahead of the next round of global climate talks in Brazil in November.

India, the world's third largest polluter behind China and the United States, currently aims to achieve a net zero emissions target by 2070.

As part of the central bank's climate disclosure rules, banks will be required to calculate gross emissions of borrowers and disclose this information by asset classes and industries, according to the draft norms.

Such disclosures are expected to be included in their financial statements.

Separately, the central bank has also shared a 52-page draft note with large banks, a copy of which Reuters has reviewed, prescribing a methodology to forecast and analyse the impact of adverse climate events as well as transition risks on borrowers' ability to repay loans.

The transition risks are those which emerge from the changing consumer behaviour, policy and technology changes, as the world moves towards a low-carbon economy, as per the note.

While banks are preparing to disclose climate risk embedded in their loan portfolios, they do not expect these disclosures to impact loan pricing in the short term.

"As of now we don't have enough granular data to reliably price in these risks in our portfolios, but the long-term approach could be in that direction," said the second source, who is a banker at a state-owned lender.

LONDON, June 16 (Reuters) - Fugitive jeweller Mehul Choksi accused India of orchestrating his kidnapping to extradite him on fraud allegations, with his lawyers telling London's High Court on Monday that only India had the motivation and resources to do so.

Choksi – who was arrested in Belgium in April – is wanted in India over his alleged involvement in one of India's biggest bank frauds at Punjab National Bank PNBK.NS, which in 2018 announced it had discovered alleged fraud worth $1.8 billion.

The Indian government has since sought to extradite Choksi, who faces charges alongside his nephew Nirav Modi, who has been in custody in Britain since 2019. The pair deny any wrongdoing.

Choksi is separately suing the Indian government in London, arguing that the state was responsible for his kidnapping in Antigua in 2021, when he says he was abducted and taken to Dominica in an attempt to extradite him to India.

India's lawyer Harish Salve said in court filings that "there is no evidence of India having anything to do with the alleged events".

Choksi alleges he was beaten in a failed attempt to extort a false confession and implicate India's political opposition, which he says points to state involvement in the incident.

Choksi's lawyer Edward Fitzgerald told the court: "The evidence points inevitably to India being behind this – they had the motivation, they had the resources."

Monday's hearing, the first since Choksi filed his case last year, was held to decide when India's application to throw out Choksi's lawsuit on state immunity should be held.

Recasts with court's decision paragraph 1, 12

By Sam Tobin

LONDON, May 15 (Reuters) - Fugitive Indian diamond magnate Nirav Modi's bid to be released on bail pending his extradition to India was refused by a London court on Thursday, despite Modi citing potential threats to his life as a reason he would not flee Britain.

The jeweller, who fled India in 2018 before details of his alleged involvement in large-scale fraud at the Punjab National Bank became public, has been in custody since March 2019.

Modi, 55, vehemently denies any wrongdoing, his lawyer says. His appeal against a decision to extradite him to India was refused by London's High Court in November 2022 and his bid to take his case to the UK Supreme Court was also rejected.

Modi's lawyer Edward Fitzgerald told the High Court on Thursday that, while the extradition case was technically at an end, Modi could not be surrendered to the Indian authorities.

"There are confidential legal reasons why (Modi) cannot be extradited," Fitzgerald said, without elaborating.

Nicholas Hearn, a lawyer representing the Indian authorities, argued that Modi should not be granted bail as he might attempt to escape – referring to Modi's previous bid for citizenship of Vanuatu – or interfere with witnesses.

Fitzgerald argued, however, that Modi would not flee Britain out of fear of the Indian government, citing alleged recent plots to target Sikh activists in the United States and Canada. India has denied it was involved in any such plots.

He also referred to India's apparent help in taking Dubai ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum's daughter Sheikha Latifa back to Dubai in 2018.

"The reach of the Indian government for extrajudicial reprisals is practically limitless," Fitzgerald said. "The idea that he could go to Vanuatu ... and there be safe from the Indian government is utterly ridiculous.

"They would either send a hit squad to get him or they would kidnap him or they would lean on the government to deport him."

The Indian High Commission in London did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Judge Michael Fordham refused Modi's application for bail, saying that "there are substantial grounds for believing that if released by me on bail ... (Modi) would fail to surrender".

Modi faces two linked criminal cases in India, a massive fraud at the Punjab National Bank and the alleged laundering of the proceeds.

Separately, Modi's uncle Mehul Choksi was last month arrested in Belgium over his alleged role in the Punjab National Bank fraud. Choksi denies any wrongdoing.

MUMBAI, May 8 (Reuters) - Punjab National Bank PNBK.NS (PNB), India's second-largest state-run lender by assets, aims to recover more soured loans this year, leading to a record-low gross bad loan ratio, a key asset quality metric, CEO Ashok Chandra said on Thursday.

The New Delhi-based lender is targeting bad loan recoveries worth 160 billion rupees ($1.89 billion) this financial year, an eleven-fold increase over the 14.36 billion rupees recovered in 2024-25, Chandra told Reuters in an interview.

About 60 billion rupees of that is expected to come from loan accounts which were previously written off, he said.

That would help lower its gross non-performing asset (NPA) ratio to under 3% by the end of 2025-26, which would be PNB's lowest on record.

Its gross NPA ratio improved to 3.95% at the end of March from 4.09% at the end of December.

That is a far cry from a gross NPA ratio of 14.33% in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic following a debilitating corporate bad loan cycle between 2011 and 2019.

On Wednesday, PNB reported a near-52% jump in net profit for the January-March quarter, partly as it set aside lesser money for bad loans. Its domestic loan growth was 13.1%, while deposits rose 13.3%.

PNB expects its loan book to grow 11%-12% in the financial year that started in April, and deposits to increase by 9%-10%, Chandra said.

It has a corporate loan book pipeline of 1.35 trillion rupees and expects a 16%-17% growth in loans to medium and small enterprises, he added.

However, since the impact of the central bank's rate cuts typically comes with a lag, PNB's cost of funds will stay elevated for a couple of quarters, Chandra said.

Separately, PNB is in touch with fellow lenders to Bhushan Power and Steel to finalise the next course of action after the Supreme Court scrapped JSW Steel's JSTL.NS four-year-old buyout of the beleaguered company, Chandra said.

PNB has received about 30 billion rupees from JSW Steel as a part of the resolution.

"All options will be explored on what is the way out."

Recasts to change sourcing to lawyer, adds quote para 8-9

By Aditya Kalra and Tanvi Mehta

NEW DELHI, April 14 (Reuters) - Fugitive jeweller Mehul Choksi has been arrested in Belgium and will file an appeal for release, his lawyer told Reuters on Monday, seven years after details of his involvement in one of India's biggest bank frauds became public.

The Indian government had sent a request for Choksi's extradition prior to his arrest, a source with India's Enforcement Directorate told Reuters.

Punjab National Bank (PNB) PNBK.NS, India's second largest state-run lender by assets, had announced in 2018 that it had discovered alleged fraud worth $1.8 billion at a single branch in Mumbai.

The bank had filed a criminal complaint with India's federal investigative agency against several entities including billionaire jeweller Nirav Modi and Choksi, his uncle and the managing director of Gitanjali Gems GTGM.NS, saying they had defrauded PNB.

Indian federal police filed fraud charges against Choksi, Nirav Modi and others in connection with suspected involvement in fraudulent transactions that led to huge losses for PNB.

The two diamond tycoons have denied any wrongdoing.

Choksi said in a letter in 2018 that the "investigating agencies were acting with pre-determined minds and interfering with the course of justice."

Choksi's lawyer Vijay Aggarwal told Reuters on Monday: "An appeal will be filed for his release, on grounds that he is undergoing cancer treatment and is not a flight risk." He said that Choksi had not committed any offence in Belgium.

Nirav Modi fled India in 2018 before details of his alleged role in the case became public. He was arrested in Britain in 2019 and remains in custody there although he has lost one extradition appeal.

Modi grew up in Belgium's diamond polishing hub Antwerp, and Choksi used to visit the city frequently, even before the financial scam was discovered.

Diamond traders in Mumbai have said Antwerp would have been an ideal place for Choksi to take refuge, as he knows people there and remains connected to those in the business.

Last week, a Pakistani-born Canadian businessman accused of helping orchestrate the 2008 attacks in Mumbai landed in New Delhi after the U.S. extradited him in the first such transfer in a terrorism case.
