This Is Why Bank Stocks Surged In Friday's Session
The gains in the banking index and stocks come as the Supreme Court has overruled NCLT order in the Essar Steel insolvency case that operational creditors be treated at par with financial creditors.
Soon after the pronouncement of the verdict, the SBI with heavy exposure to Essar Steel rallied a much as 5%. Also, ICICI Bank with an exposure of more than Rs. 2500 crore, surged 2% in trade today. Other banking stocks that gained after the verdict are stocks such as Bank of India and IDBI. Earlier, the CoC had filed a case against the ruling of NCLAT which stated that should recover more than operation creditors in the bankruptcy resolution process. After the verdict, Arcelor Mittal may acquire the bankrupt company. GoodReturns.in
