Given SBI's ₹1,63,408 crore outstanding bond portfolio, how might upcoming Basel III capital requirement changes or RBI regulatory updates impact the bank's future AT1 and Tier 2 bond issuance strategy?
With SBI consistently raising capital through private placements rather than equity routes, could increasing credit demand or economic expansion pressure the bank to consider a QIP or rights issue in FY27?
As several of SBI's older AT1 and Tier 2 bonds approach maturity or call dates, what refinancing risks or interest rate dynamics could influence the cost of rolling over this debt in the current rate environment?
