Axis Trustee Demands Yes Bank Restore 8,415 Crore AT1 Bonds After Supreme Court Ruling
Following the Supreme Court's October 15 ruling that upheld the reversal of Yes Bank's 8,415 crore AT1 bond write-off from 2020, Axis Trustee Services Ltd has given the bank three working days to restore the bonds to their pre-write-off status. The trustee also requested clarity on unpaid coupons and a timeline for assessment. The ruling impacts Yes Bank's capital ratios, with the Common Equity Tier 1 ratio expected to drop by about 240-250 basis points. Meanwhile, Yes Bank shares have declined significantly amid investor concerns over capital and coupon payments.
