IDBI Bank to Transfer Demat Business to Subsidiary ICMS for ₹5.5 Crore
IDBI Bank's Board approved the transfer of its Demat Business to subsidiary ICMS. The transaction involves transferring NSDL and CDSL DP IDs for ₹5.50 Crore, to be received over one year. This is an arm's length, related party transaction with prior audit committee approval.
The value of the transaction (₹5.5 Crore) is a very small fraction of the bank's overall business and income, hence the impact is considered low.
The transfer of a business unit to a subsidiary is a routine corporate action. While it involves a financial transaction, it does not inherently indicate a positive or negative shift in the bank's overall performance or outlook based solely on this announcement.
IDBI Bank Limited has announced the approval by its Board of Directors to transfer the ownership and management of its existing Demat Business to its wholly-owned subsidiary, IDBI Capital Market Services Ltd. (ICMS).
This transfer will be executed through the transfer of Depository Participant (DP) IDs for both NSDL and CDSL. The transaction is considered to be within the scope of Related Party Transactions and has been executed at arm's length, with prior approval obtained from the Audit Committee of the Board.
The consideration received from this disposal is ₹5.50 Crore (Rupees Five Crore Fifty lakhs Only), which will be received over a period of one year from the date of completion of the transfer. The value of the unit being transferred is less than 0.032% of the Bank's Total Income for the last financial year. ICMS is a SEBI-registered entity engaged in various capital market services, including stockbroking and depository participation.
