    Solution

    As of March 2024, the State Bank of India (SBI) held 23.97% stake in Yes Bank. Under the approved arrangement, SBI agreed to sell 13.19% of its stake to SMBC for ₹8,889 crore. This transaction is significant not just for its value but also for its context, since SBI had originally stepped in (along with a consortium of banks) to rescue Yes Bank following its crisis. The deal represents a partial exit strategy for SBI while bringing in foreign capital through SMBC.
