NEW DELHI, Feb 25 (Reuters) - India has invited bids to appoint merchant bankers and legal advisers to sell the government's minority shareholding in select public sector banks and financial companies.

The government is looking to undertake minority stake sales in state-run banks and financial firms through an offer for sale, according to a document published on Monday on the Department of Investment and Public Asset Management's website, which did not name the lenders.

The federal finance ministry is looking dilute minority shareholdings in Central Bank of India CBI.NS, Indian Overseas Bank IOBK.NS, UCO Bank UCBK.NS, and Punjab and Sind Bank PUNA.NS, Reuters reported in November.

The plan to lower the government’s stake in banks and financial companies is required to comply with public shareholding norms mandated by the markets regulator.

The Securities and Exchange Board of India requires companies to maintain a 25% public shareholding, but has exempted government-owned firms from meeting these norms till August 2026.

The Indian government owns more than 93% in Central Bank of India, 96.4% in Indian Overseas Bank, 95.4% in UCO Bank and 98.3% in Punjab and Sind Bank. It also owns an 80% stake in Bank of Maharashtra BMBK.NS.

In the past, public sector banks launched qualified institutional placements (QIP) to raise capital, which, in turn, reduced the government's stake in state-run banks.

Merchant bankers and legal advisers will be appointed for three years and are required to submit their bids by March 27, the document said.

India has ditched its ambitious privatisation plans and put on hold a majority stake sale in at least nine state-owned units after opposition from relevant ministries.

Instead, it is continuing with minority stake sales in state-run companies. As of February, the government mopped up 86.25 billion rupees ($993.2 million) via stake sales in the 2024-25 financial year.

NEW DELHI, Nov 19 (Reuters) - The Indian government is considering selling minority stakes in four state-run banks to comply with public shareholding norms mandated by the country's markets regulator, a government source told Reuters.

The finance ministry is likely to seek approval of the federal cabinet in the coming months to dilute the stake in Central Bank of India CBI.NS, Indian Overseas Bank IOBK.NS, UCO Bank UCBK.NS, and Punjab and Sind Bank PUNA.NS, the source said.

The Indian government owns more than 93% in Central Bank of India, 96.4% in Indian Overseas Bank, 95.4% in UCO Bank and 98.3% in Punjab and Sind Bank as of end-September, according to data on the BSE's website.

The plan under consideration is to sell the stake through an offer for sale in the open market, the source said.

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) requires listed companies to maintain a 25% public shareholding, but has exempted government-owned firms from meeting these norms till August 2026.

The source did not comment on whether the government will be able to meet the regulator's deadline or whether it would seek a further extension.

The official said the timing and the quantum of the sale would be decided based on market conditions. The official did not want to be named as he is not authorised to speak to the media.

India's finance ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

In the past, public sector banks have launched qualified institutional placements (QIP) to raise capital which has in turn lowered the government's stake in state-run banks.

Punjab National Bank raised 50 billion rupees through a QIP in September, while Bank of Maharashtra raised 35 billion rupees in October.

BENGALURU, Oct 10 (Reuters) - India's central bank has approved the appointment of veteran banker Partha Pratim Sengupta as chief executive officer and managing director of Bandhan Bank BANH.NS, the private lender said in a filing on Thursday.

Sengupta, who has been part of the banking industry for nearly four decades, previously held leadership positions at the State Bank of India SBI.NS, the country's largest lender.

He was also managing director and chief executive officer of state-owned Indian Overseas Bank IOBK.NS between 2020 and 2022. At Bandhan Bank, he will replace Chandra Shekhar Ghosh, who retired this July after nearly a decade at the helm.

Bandhan Bank stated in a separate filing that the National Credit Guarantee Trustee Company had completed an audit of loan claims filed by the lender under a guarantee scheme and said the remaining claims payout to the bank stood at 3.15 billion rupees.

The audit by the government agency was related to a set of loans the bank had given out as part of a government-backed scheme during the COVID-19 pandemic. The scheme was meant to ensure payments to lenders in the case of defaults on micro loans by small borrowers.

The Reserve Bank of India had appointed a director to the board of Bandhan Bank in June, while the audit was underway, without disclosing the reason for the move.
