AU Small Finance Bank today said it has received shareholders approval to raise Rs 1,000 crore from Singapore-based investment firm Temasek.

This would be the largest primary capital infusion in in the bank and its first ever since its last raise in 2011-12, AU Small Finance Bank said in a statement.

Its Rs 1,913 crore IPO last year was a complete Offer-for-Sale with no infusion in the bank, it said.

AU Bank's shareholders include IFC, Warburg Pincus, Chrys Capital and Kedaara Capital.

It said the bank clocked a strong disbursement growth of more than 60 per cent, AUM growth of about 50 per cent and mobilized Rs 8,000 crore of deposits, in 2017-18.

 

As of March 31 2018, AU Bank had expanded its branch network to over 500 touch points including 306 bank branches, 97 asset centers, 89 BC outlets, 23 offices and 292 ATMs.
