Bain Capital to Exit Axis Bank

More than six years after making a big-bang entry into Axis Bank, Bain Capital is all set to make a complete exit from the private sector lender, as the US private equity major looks to dilute its balance stake and launch a fresh block deal of around US$ 430 million (m).

The block deal has been launched by a few entities associated with Bain Capital and this is intended to be a clean-up trade, marking a full exit of Bain Capital.

The offer price has been fixed in the range of 1,071.0 to 1,076.1 per share, representing a modest discount at best to Monday's closing price of 1,076.1 per share. BofA Securities India is the sole book-runner for the deal.

Bain Capital entities, Integral Investments South Asia IV will offload 8.4 m shares, while BC Asia Investments VII and BC Asia Investments III fund will sell 14.5 m and 10.5 m shares, respectively.

Bain Capital acquired its stake in Axis Bank in November 2017. The private equity firm previously sold a 1.1% stake in the private sector lender through open market transactions in December for about 37 bn.
