It has thus far steered its sustainable growth initiatives to drive positive impact – for the people as well as the planet.

Criticism


In 2014, the company accounts reflected loans of ₹55,633 crores, and the deposit book's data was 74,192 crores. Since then loan growth increased highly and went to 2.25 trillion as of 2019. Soon after, the asset quality of the bank also dipped. In a 2015 UBS report, a global financial service company made an analysis and found that Yes Bank assets quality had loans more than its net worth to companies that were highly unlikely to repay the loans.

While the loan amount increased at high rates, the withdrawals were also spiking on the other hand. Yet, Yes Bank continued to hand out loans to numerous large firms such as the Essel Group, Reliance, CCD, DHFL, etc. Since the mentioned companies couldn't repay the loans within a limited time frame, it started a crisis. Slowly but steadily, the bank collapsed. Soon after, a merger will the State Bank of India saved the bank from imminent danger. by acquiring a 49% stake after RBI imposed a 30-day moratorium on Yes Bank.

COVID-19 Impact


As COVID-19 hit the country and resulted in a stringent lockdown, Yes Bank embraced the digital workspace mode in a supersonic way. As consumers went digital, its products and services did too.

Future Prospects


It's been 2 years since SBI along with other private banks rescued Yes Bank after the RBI put it under strict restrictions following a weakened financial position and its inability to raise capital. Since then, the company has seen a slow but steady recovery. The bank has announced plans to set up an asset reconstruction programme.

Did You Know


In 2008, Yes Bank won the 'Most Innovative Indian Bank' at the New Economy First Annual Banking and Finance awards held in London. The company launched a digital wallet called Yes Pay, integrating with BHIM and UPI in October 2017.

Initial Public Offering


The IPO of the enterprise was released on the National Stock Exchange (NSE) in July, 2020, as well as listed on BSE, where the base Yes bank share price was set at Rs. 12 and Rs. 13 per share. The face value per Yes Bank stock price was Rs. 2 while the lot size was 1,000 shares. The issue size of shares of Rs. 2 was an aggregate of Rs. 15,000.00 crores and these were all offered for sale.

Equity Shares


The company shares have been one of the biggest losers for investors as the Yes bank share price had fallen over 95% from its peak. But, in June, 2022, the stock has done a turnabout. It gained over 30% in a single month. In August 2018, Yes bank was soaring up with a share price of Rs. 350, but post the MDs confirmation that he would not sell his shares ever, the market took a hit for the company, and the trajectory was downwards ever since. Many companies that had borrowed funds, like Anil Ambani, Daewan and more were unable to pay back their loans, leading to further losses. But mid 2022 saw a sudden and steep rise, and the reason behind this is fascinating.

The Yes bank stock price is increasing because:

  1. They announced the sale of their bad loans worth Rs. 48,000 crores in Rs. 11,100 crores.
  2. They have started raising new funds for a fresh start, gaining fresh capital to lend back into their operations.
  3. The State Bank of India invested in Yes Bank and now holds 26% stake.
  4. There is positive news of Aditya Suri looking to join the board of directors at the company.

Having said that, most investors are starting to see real potential in the Yes Bank stock price improvement. It will be a good buy, as the market is calculated to increase swiftly.
