State Bank of India (SBi) plans to raise Rs 500-crore via perpetual bonds, a senior bank official said.
"We plan to raise Rs 500-crore at 9.10 per cent," the public sector lender's Deputy Managing Director and CFO S S Ranjan told reporters here today.
"We will place it with SBI Pension Fund," he said.
This would not dilute the equity capital but would add to the bank's Tier I capital, he said.
