The Reserve Bank of India has granted approval to Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited to acquire up to 9.99% of the paid-up share capital or voting rights in Jammu and Kashmir Bank Limited. The approval was granted on May 6, 2026, based on an application from Kotak Mahindra Bank. Kotak Mahindra Bank has one year from the RBI letter date to complete the acquisition, failing which the approval will be cancelled. Post-acquisition, if Kotak Mahindra's holding falls below 5%, prior RBI approval will be required to increase it back to 5% or more. The acquisition is subject to compliance with the Banking Regulation Act, 1949, FEMA, 1999, SEBI regulations, and other applicable laws.
A ~10% stake purchase by Kotak Mahindra Bank signals institutional confidence in J&K Bank and could be positive for the stock, potentially driving investor interest. This also opens the door for potential deeper strategic ties between the two banks.
