Based on Motilal Oswal Securities, the SC verdict on AGR obligations will further affect banks’ asset quality and may induce an uptick in charge price over FY21, particularly at a period when Vodafone Idea (Voda-Idea) faces an impending shutdown. “compared with peers, State Bank of India (SBI) has better capability to supply for this particular stressed telecom firm due to its high healing possible from other worried accounts/divestment in cards industry,” said Gautam Duggad, head of institutional study at Motilal Oswal.
