The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) today said Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) cannot buy shares of Yes Bank as their limit of 49 per cent has been breached.
“Yes Bank has crossed the overall limit of 49 per cent of its paid-up capital. Therefore, no further purchases of share of this company would be allowed through stock exchanges in India on behalf of Foreign Institutional Investors,” the RBI said in a statement.
FIIs, NRIs and PIOs (Persons of Indian Origin) are allowed to invest in the primary and secondary capital markets in India under the Portfolio Investment Scheme (PIS).
Shares of Yes Bank today closed at Rs 474.50 apiece on the BSE, up 0.3 per cent from the previous close.
