Bandhan Bank promoter to gradually reduce stake to meet RBI norms
As per the bank’s licensing agreement with the Reserve Bank of India, the promoter must reduce the stake to 26% by 2030.
“There is sufficient time. We have no plans for a bulk offloading in one go,” chairman Chandra Shekhar Ghosh told ET. The promoter brought down its holdings in the bank to 37.54% as of end June from 38.98% three months prior. The holding was 39.74% at the end of 2025. The recent share sales likely occurred on the open market.

The main business of Bandhan Financial Services is managing its investments. It has two subsidiaries – Bandhan Financial Holdings and Bandhan Technologies. The first one is the holding company for Bandhan Bank, Bandhan AMC, Bandhan Mutual Fund Trustee, Bandhan Investment Managers (Mauritius) and Bandhan Life Insurance.
Bandhan Financial Services owned 59.98% in Bandhan AMC and 97.16% in Bandhan Life Insurance Company as of March 31, 2026.
Meanwhile, the promoter has proposed a stock split. As per the plan, each existing equity share of face value ₹10 would be divided into five shares having a face value of ₹2 each. Its shareholders would review this plan at the annual general meeting scheduled on September 22. A stock split would likely help the company at the time of going public, making the share price attractive for retail investors.

The company further said that the deal is the largest single residential unit transaction in the country. The residence comprises an entire G+7 storey tower with a RERA carpet area of 63,000 sq ft, and a transaction value of approximately Rs 711 crore.
The ultra-luxury project is part of a five-tower development spread over 2 acres of land with 50 residences and has an estimated Gross Development Value (GDV) of over Rs 3,000 crore. This project, scheduled to be completed by December 2031, is being executed by Embassy Developments under a development management model.
“Over the last three decades, Embassy has built a deep understanding of what today’s homebuyers value most. We have brought that same philosophy to Mumbai, and in a relatively short period, it has resonated with some of the country’s most discerning buyers,” said Jitendra Virwani, Chairman, Embassy Developments.
“Dinesh Thakkar’s acquisition of an entire tower at Embassy Terazza is a strong endorsement of that vision and the trust the Embassy brand has earned in Mumbai within 18 months of launching in the city,” Virwani further said.Located on Juhu Tara Road, one of Mumbai’s most coveted residential addresses and home to leading business families, industrialists and celebrities, Embassy Terazza is an ultra-luxury low-density development spanning over 2+ acres with approximately 50 residences and has an estimated Gross Development Value (GDV) in excess of Rs 3,000 crore.
The company also said that the design features include one residence per floor across the five towers, offering panoramic sea and city views, thoughtfully planned layouts, lush internal gardens, and curated wellness and lifestyle amenities and this project is being developed by Embassy Developments Limited under a development management model.
“Juhu has always had a special character that very few locations in Mumbai can match. When I started looking for a new home, my focus was on privacy, spaciousness, exceptional sea views and creating a luxurious, iconic sanctuary that would become our family home,” said Dinesh Thakkar, Founder, Chairman and Managing Director, Angel One.
“‘Angelus’ is what we have named our new dream home, which is being crafted into reality by the Embassy Group. Embassy Terazza brings together all these aspirations in one project.”
Joining Embassy Citadel in Worli and Embassy Serenity in Alibaug, Embassy Terazza further strengthens EDL’s growing residential footprint across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, alongside its ongoing projects, Embassy Park in Panvel and Embassy One in Thane, the company added.

Drivers in the West Midlands rethink spending as fuel prices climb
Soaring fuel prices are forcing motorists to cut back on everyday spending and adding tens of thousands of pounds a week to business costs, with petrol at its highest level since November 2022.
Drivers say they are changing their spending habits to cope with rising costs at the pump, while businesses warn higher fuel bills are placing increasing pressure on their finances.
Petrol prices rose to an average of 161.3p per litre between July and August, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS), the highest level recorded since November 2022, when Russia’s invasion of Ukraine pushed up global energy costs.
Diesel is also expected to top £2 per litre in the coming days.
Among those feeling the impact is Arvander Pabla in Willenhall, in the West Midlands, who drives a lot every day and says rising fuel costs have forced him to make cutbacks elsewhere.
“I do nearly 70, 75 miles per day, and it has really affected me price wise, because it has nearly gone double,” he said.
To create more room in his budget for fuel, he said he had reduced spending on takeaways and eating out, and was considering replacing his car with a more fuel-efficient vehicle.
