"Of these banks, the Board for Financial Supervision (BFS) noted that Allahabad Bank and Corporation Bank had received Rs 6896 crore and Rs 9086 crore respectively. This has shored up their capital funds and also increased their loan loss provision to ensure that the PCA parameters were complied with," RBI said.
The release noted that the two banks made the necessary disclosures to the Stock Exchange and after the infusion of capital, the CRAR, CET1, Net NPA and Leverage Ratios are no longer in breach of the PCA thresholds.
The release also noted that the banks also apprised RBI of the structural and systemic improvements put in place to maintain these numbers and based on the principles adopted by the BFS, decided to remove Allahabad Bank and Corporation Bank from the PCA framework.
