This was stated by Shri Santosh Kumar Gangwar, Minister of State for Finance in written reply to a question in Lok Sabha today.

Bank recapitalization enables PSBs to raise market capital with phased dilution of government stake to meet regulatory needs. The Government implemented a structured bank recapitalization under the Indradhanush Plan with multi-year budgetary tranches and made substantial capital infusions into several public sector banks; allocations were determined with reference to macroeconomic factors, credit estimates, Basel requirements and RBI recommendations. The Government also authorised PSBs to raise capital from markets via Follow-on Public Offers, Qualified Institutional Placements and preferential allotments, permitting phased dilution of Government of India holding up to 52% based on each bank's capital requirement, stock performance, liquidity and market conditions.
