As part of its future growth strategy, the Bank intends to use the capital to support its growing business needs and expansion plans while further strengthening its capital adequacy ratio.
The Bank proposed to issue and allot an aggregate of up to 2.07 crore equity shares of face value of Rs 10 each, at a premium of Rs 130 per equity share aggregating to an issue price of Rs 140 per equity share.

Speaking on the occasion, Dhanlaxmi Bank MD-cum-CEO Amitabh Chaturvedi said, "The response from long-term investors endorses the faith reposed by all stakeholders in the Bank's strategy, robust business model and its commitment to deliver superior shareholder value. The proceeds will be used to support our future expansion plans and will provide us with a firm base for exponential business growth." Pursuant to the preferential issue, WCP Mauritius Holdings, Customers Bancorp, Inc, MKCP Mauritius Master Holdings II Ltd or any its subsidiaries or affiliates could hold up to 4.90 per cent each of the issued and paid up equity share capital of Dhanlaxmi Bank.
