Under the globally accepted Basel-III capital regulations, banks need to improve and strengthen their capital planning processes.
Basel III norms are being implemented in phases since 2013 by the Indian banks to mitigate concerns on potential stress on asset quality and consequential impact on performance and profitability of banks.
The deadline for the domestic banks to meet these guidelines is September 30, 2020.
Canara Bank stock closed at Rs 100.85 on BSE, up 0.55 per cent from previous close.
