SEBI investigates Karnataka Bank’s share price movement

20 Dec 2012 Evaluate

The recent bustle surrounding Mangalore-headquartered Karnataka Bank stock has caught the eye of Market regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), which is currently investigating the share price movement in recent weeks, mainly driven by speculation about the bank’s possible merger with a private-sector player, ICICI Bank. Further, SEBI has also sent letters to some traders and investors with sizeable positions, seeking an explanation about the nature of their transactions.

However, both the banks have denied the acquisition reports. Further, ICICI Bank in a filing to BSE has reported that the Bank is currently not considering merger or acquisition of any bank.

Karnataka Bank shares, which closed at Rs 174.55 on Wednesday, had hit the year’s high of Rs 195.70 on December 10, after rising almost 140 per cent in three months.
