Indian tech-to-tractor conglomerate Mahindra & Mahindra on Wednesday said it bought a 3.53% stake in private lender RBL Bank for 4.17 billion rupees ($50.8 million).
The company might consider further investment in the lender subject to pricing, regulatory approvals and required procedures, Mahindra said, adding that the investment will not exceed a 9.9% stake.
Multiple block deals were seen in RBL Bank on Wednesday and the stock ended up 7.1%.
