Toh scene yeh hai ki SEBI ne finally RBL Bank aur Emirates NBD ke deal ko approval de diya hai. Yeh kaafi bada step tha taaki foreign lender RBL Bank mein bada stake le sake. Deal October 2025 mein announce hui thi aur SEBI ka approval isme ek bada obstacle hatata hai.
Magar Stock Kyun Gira?
Is approval ke baad bhi RBL Bank ka share price Thursday ko 1.76% gir kar ₹335.20 pe trade kar raha tha. Iss reaction se lagta hai ki investors approval se zyada deal ki baaki conditions aur valuation pe focus kar rahe hain. Abhi aur bhi approvals chahiye aur customary conditions poori karni hongi.
Valuation Ka Chakkar
Market ki yeh hesitations samajh mein aati hai jab valuation dekho. RBL Bank ka Price-to-Earnings (P/E) ratio April 2026 tak 22-26x chal raha hai. Yeh Axis Bank (around 13x), HDFC Bank (about 15.5x), aur ICICI Bank (roughly 20x) jaise bade Indian private banks se kaafi upar hai. Waise bhi, Indian banks ka average P/E sirf 12.5x ke aas-paas hai. RBL Bank ka Return on Equity (ROE) bhi 4.5% to 5.3% hai, jo top banks ke comparison mein kam hai.
Pichla Performance Aur Sector Ka Trend
Ajeeb baat yeh hai ki RBL Bank ka stock Pichhle kuch time mein kaafi bhaga hai. December 2024 se April 2026 tak yeh lagbhag 100% badh gaya tha, ₹345.65 ka 52-week high bhi touch kiya tha. Pehle toh capital raise ki khabar pe stock 3% tak bhag jaata tha. Par abhi valuation worries zyada hain.
BFSI sector mein global investment aa rahi hai, lekin RBL Bank ka stock is trend se alag chal raha hai. Ho sakta hai ki yeh deal ke execution risks aur bank ki valuation pe jyada depend kare.
Analysts Kya Keh Rahe Hain?
Bahut saare analysts abhi bhi RBL Bank ko 'Buy' rating de rahe hain, lekin kuch ne recently downgrade bhi kiya hai. Analysts ke average 12-month price targets ₹342 se ₹373 ke beech hain. Matlab, abhi ke price se thoda hi gain expect kar rahe hain. Company ki revenue 16% CAGR se aur net income 38% CAGR se badhne ki projection hai agle teen saal mein. Agar yeh numbers aate hain toh valuation ko support mil sakta hai.
