Cabinet gives green signal to Rs 2.11 lakh crore recapitalisation plan for PSBs

25 Oct 2017 Evaluate

In a bid to boost flagging economic growth and increase bank credit flow, the Union Cabinet has given green signal to massive recapitalisation plan for public sector banks (PSBs) worth Rs 2.11 lakh crore. For bank recapitalisation, Rs 1.35 lakh crore will be raised through recap bonds and Rs 76,000 crore via budgetary support and equity issuance. Describing this as a ‘bold step’, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley has said that it's time to create stronger banks to catalyse stalled private investment in the country. He said the capital infusion would be done over the next two fiscal and added that it would be accompanied by series of banking reforms which would be spelt out in the next few months. He also said the recapitalisation of state banks would be followed by a series of reforms.

Jaitley further said that banks would get Rs 18,000 crore under the Indradhanush plan. Under Indradhanush roadmap introduced in 2015, the government had announced to infuse Rs 70,000 crore in state-run banks over four years to meet their capital requirement in line with global risk norms, known as Basel-III. In line with the plan, public sector banks were given Rs 25,000 crore in 2015-16, and similar amount has been earmarked for the following years. Besides, Rs 10,000 crore each would be infused in 2017-18 and 2018-19.

Besides, the Cabinet also approved the biggest ever highway project to develop and expand approximately 83,000 km of roads at an investment of Rs 6.9 lakh crore by 2022. The project also includes the new 28,400 km Bharatmala highway programme connecting border areas, improving international, port and coastal connectivity and developing highway corridors connecting key economic and commercial hubs. The proposal is aimed at pushing economic activity and generating at least 32 crore man-days across the country in the next five years.
