The Tamil Nadu-based bank has got the Reserve Bank of India's permission to raise foreign institutional investor (FII) limit to 35 percent.
Last March, FIIs were banned from trading in the City Union Bank counter as the 24 percent ceiling was getting breached at that point of time.

The Tamil Nadu-based bank has got the Reserve Bank of India's permission to raise foreign institutional investor (FII) limit to 35 percent. So far, no FII has approached the bank to pick up a stake, Kamakodi said. The bank's net interest margin is 3.5 percent.
Below is the transcript of N Kamakodi's interview to CNBC-TV18's Ekta Batra and Reema Tendulkar
Reema: There was a big block deal of 2.3 crore shares which exchange today. Are you aware of who the buyers and the sellers are in this transaction?
A: We haven't got the information yet from our resource, we will get it only after the end of today's trading or when we get the knowledge of settlement.
Ekta: Let us focus on the news with regards to the RBI lifting a curb of the Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) investment limit in City Union Bank. Can you take us through what the investment limit now stands at, how much of it is exhausted and how much of a gap or ceiling do you have remaining?
A: Last year in March the FIIs were banned from trading in the City Union Bank counter because the 24 percent ceiling was getting breached at that point of time. In August 2013 during our annual general meeting shareholders approved for increase in that limit to 35 percent which we applied to Reserve Bank of India (RBI) for further approval. So after the due process we just got the approval from RBI that we can increase the FII, FDI and all our foreign institutions limits up to 35 percent and there is now a gap of about 10 percent incremental exposure the FIIs can take.
Reema: So currently FIIs have about 25 percent stake in the bank?
A: Yes FII, FDI all other foreign institutions put together have about 24-25 percent. Now the institutions will have option to increase it up to 35 percent of course with the ceiling that nobody can take more than 5 percent without specific approval.
