Shares of SBI’s associate banks were on fire with two of them hitting new 52-week highs. All the three associate banks witnessed huge trading volume in the light of expected amendments to banking regulations today.
However, the shares of the parent bank itself remained subdued making only marginal gain minutes before the markets was to close today.

State Bank of Travancore jumped to Rs 618.50, a gain of Rs 76.90 or 14.20 per cent and it saw a trading volume of 6.72 lakh shares.
