Indian Overseas Bank to raise Rs 4,000 cr this financial year: MD & CEO
Chennai, Jul 18 (PTI) Public sector Indian Overseas Bank has drawn up plans to raise Rs 4,000 crore during this financial year through various instruments, including Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP), a top official said on Friday. With the proposed plan to fund raise, the Government of India's shareholding in the Chennai-headquartered bank is expected to come down to 90 per cent from the current 94 per cent, the bank's Managing Director and CEO Ajay Kumar Srivastava said here. 'Last year, we raised about Rs 1,440 crore in March. This year we are looking for about Rs 4,000 crore to raise. For that we are talking to various authorities for their approval," he told reporters after declaring the financial performance of the bank. Asked about the kind of instruments that would be used for the fund raise, he said, 'It will be a mix. Most of it will be through QIP (Qualified Institutional Placements). With this, Government of India shareholding will come down to 90 per cent from 94 per cent." To another query on when the fund raise was expected to occur, Srivastava said, 'We expect it will happen by Q3 end or Q4." Indian Overseas Bank reported a 76 per cent jump in net profit to Rs 1,111 crore during the April-June 2025 quarter. The bank had earned a net profit of Rs 633 crore in the same quarter of the previous financial year. Total income of the bank during the June quarter rose to Rs 8,866 crore from Rs 7,568 crore recorded in the same quarter of last financial year. Asked on the drivers for the increase in net profit, he said, the driver is interest income. 'We have been doing quality lending at a healthy rate of interest. So that is one. The net interest income has increased. We have been able to control our expenses to a certain extent and the other income has increased for the bank." he said. 'The third most crucial part is less provisioning requirement and all these factors combined have given 75 per cent increase in net profit", he said.

Tata Motors in talks to acquire European truckmaker Iveco: Report
Italy's Agnelli family is in talks over the possible sale of truck maker Iveco, three sources told Reuters, with two mentioning Tata Motors as a potential buyer. India's Tata Motors has approached Exor, the Agnellis' investment company, over its controlling stake in Iveco Group, two of the sources said. A sale would not include Iveco's IDV defence business. Exor and Iveco declined to comment. Tata Motors did not reply to a request for comment. Shares in Iveco jumped as much as 9.7 per cent on the Milan bourse following the news published by Reuters. The stock ended trading up 8.3 per cent on Friday. Italian trade unions also reacted to the Reuters report, asking Industry Minister Adolfo Urso to be summoned to discuss the company's prospects. Iveco said in May it would press ahead with plans to either spin off its defence business by the end of 2025 or sell it, having already received offers from potential buyers. A third source said that, as the separation process of the defence unit was progressing, Exor had started talks with more than one non-European counterpart over a possible sale. The talks over the sale of Iveco and Tata Motors' approach have not been reported before. Exor owns a 27.1 per cent stake in Iveco, with 43.1 per cent of voting rights in the Turin-based truck maker. Iveco, which also makes buses and engines, has a market capitalisation of around 4.2 billion euros ($4.9 billion). It is the smallest among Europe's leading truck makers - a market led by Volvo, Daimler and Traton - and has often been seen as a potential M&A candidate by investors and analysts. However, its presence in the sensitive business of defence has so far complicated any possible deal and restricted the pool of potential buyers. The Italian government in 2021 blocked an offer for Iveco from Chinese rival FAW. Iveco was at that time part of the Agnelli-controlled industrial conglomerate CNH. It was spun off and separately listed at the beginning of 2022. Iveco has received three offers for its defence business, according to two sources: a joint one from Italian defence company Leonardo and Germany's Rheinmetall, and two others from Franco-German tank maker KNDS and arms company Czechoslovak Group. These offers value IDV at up to 1.9 billion euros, according to Bloomberg. Iveco employs around 36,000 people, including 14,000 in Italy. Any M&A transaction involving Iveco is expected to fall under Rome's 'golden power' legislation, allowing it to set conditions on deals affecting companies deemed of national strategic interest.
