2 Issuer IDBI Bank Limited
3 Issue Size and Option to
retain over-subscription
Rs.1,000 Crore with green shoe option of
Rs.1,000 Crore.
4 Objects of the Issue /
Details of the utilization of
the proceeds
Augmenting Additional Tier1 Capital (as the
term is defined in the Basel III Guidelines) and
over all capital of the Issuer for strengthening
its capital adequacy and for enhancing its
long-term resources.
5 Type of Instrument Unsecured, subordinated, non-convertible,
perpetual bonds which will qualify as
Additional Tier 1 Capital (as the term is
defined in the Basel III Guidelines) (the
“Bonds”).
6 Nature of Instrument The Bonds are neither secured nor covered
by a guarantee of the Issuer nor related
entity or other arrangement that legally or
economically enhances the seniority of the
claim of the holders of the Bonds (the
“Bondholders”) vis-à-vis other creditors of
the Issuer.
7 Seniority The claims in respect of the Bonds, subject
to Condition 8 (Temporary principal write-
down), will rank:
(i) superior to the claims of investors in
equity shares and perpetual non-cumulative
preference shares of the Issuer;
(ii) subordinate to the claims of all
depositors and general creditors and
subordinated debt of the Issuer other than
subordinated debt qualifying as Additional
Tier1 Capital (as the term is defined in the
Basel III Guidelines) of the Issuer;
(iii) pari passu without preference amongst
themselves and other debt instruments
classifying as Additional Tier 1 Capital in
terms of Basel III Guidelines; and
(iv) to the extent permitted by the Basel III
Guidelines, pari passu with any
subordinated obligation eligible for inclusion
in hybrid Tier 1 capital under the then
prevailing Basel II guidelines.
As a consequence of these subordination
provisions, if a winding up proceeding
should occur, the Bondholders may recover
less rateably than the holders of deposit
liabilities or the holders of other
unsubordinated liabilities of the Issuer.
Bondholders will not be entitled to receive
notice of, or attend or vote at, any meeting of
shareholders of the Issuer or participate in
the management of the Issuer.
8 Temporary principal write-
down
Where a temporary write-down of the Bonds
pursuant to Condition 41(ii) (Temporary
principal write-down on CET1 Trigger Event)
has occurred, the claim of Bondholders for
any amount which has been written-down
(and not yet reinstated) in any winding up
proceedings of the Issuer will rank pari
passu with the rights and claims of the
Issuer‟s ordinary shareholders.
For the avoidance of doubt: (i) if the Issuer
goes into liquidation before any write-down
under Condition 41 (Loss Absorption) the
Bonds will absorb losses in accordance with
Condition 7 (Seniority); (ii) if the Issuer
goes into liquidation when the Bonds have
been written-down temporarily in
accordance with Condition 41(ii) (Temporary
principal write-down on CET1 Trigger Event)
but yet to be written-up, the holders of such
Bonds will have a claim on the proceeds of
liquidation pari passu with equity holders in
proportion to the amount written-down in
accordance with this Condition 8
(Temporary principal write-down); and (iii)
if the Issuer goes into liquidation after any
permanent Write-Down of Capital Securities
pursuant to Condition 41(i) (Permanent
principal write-down on PONV Trigger Event),
the holders of the Bonds will have no claim
on the proceeds of liquidation in relation to
the amount written down.

frameworks (i.e. capital conservation buffer,
countercyclical capital buffer and Domestic

III Guidelines;

41. Loss Absorption:
(i) Permanent principal write-
down on PONV Trigger
Event
If a PONV Trigger Event (as described below)
occurs, the Issuer shall:
(i) notify the Trustee;
(ii) cancel any coupon which is accrued and
unpaid on the Bonds as on the write-down date;
and
(iii) without the need for the consent of
Bondholders or the Trustee, write down the
outstanding principal of the Bonds by such
amount as may be prescribed by RBI (“PONV
Write Down Amount”) and subject as is
otherwise required by the RBI at the relevant
time. The Issuer will affect a write-down within
thirty days of the PONV Write-Down Amount
being determined and agreed with the RBI.
A write-down may occur on more than one
occasion.
Once the principal of the Bonds have been
written down pursuant to PONV Trigger Event,
the PONV Write-Down Amount will not be
restored in any circumstances, including where
the PONV Trigger Event has ceased to continue.
If the Issuer is amalgamated with any other bank
pursuant to Section 44 A of the Banking
Regulation Act, 1949 (the BR Act) before the
Bonds have been written down, the Bonds will
become part of the Additional Tier 1 capital of
the new bank emerging after the merger. If the
Issuer is amalgamated with any other bank after
the Bonds have been written down pursuant to a
PONV Trigger Event, these cannot be reinstated
by the amalgamated bank. If the RBI or other
relevant authority decides to reconstitute the
Issuer or amalgamate the Issuer with any other
bank, pursuant to Section 45 of the BR Act, the
Issuer will be deemed as non-viable or
approaching non-viability and the PONV
Trigger Event will be activated. Accordingly,
the Bonds will be permanently written-down in
full prior to any reconstitution or amalgamation.
PONV Trigger Event, in respect of the Issuer
or its group, means the earlier of:
(i) a decision that a conversion or principal
write-down, without which the Issuer or its
group (as the case may be) would become non-
viable, is necessary, as determined by the RBI;
and
(ii) the decision to make a public sector
injection of capital, or equivalent support,
without which the Issuer or its group (as the case
may be) would have become non-viable, as
determined by the RBI;
However, any capital infusion by Government
of India into the Issuer as the promoter of the
Issuer in the normal course of business may not
be construed as a PONV trigger.
A write-down due to a PONV Trigger Event
shall occur prior to any public sector injection
of capital so that the capital provided by the
public sector is not diluted.
The Basel III Guidelines state that, for this
purpose, a non-viable bank will be a bank
which, owing to its financial and other
difficulties, may no longer remain a going
concern on its own in the opinion of the RBI
unless appropriate measures are taken to revive
its operations and thus, enable it to continue as
a going concern. The difficulties faced by a
bank should be such that these are likely to
result in financial losses and raising the
Common Equity Tier 1 Capital of the bank
should be considered as the most appropriate
way to prevent the bank from turning non-
viable. Such measures would include a
permanent write-off in combination with or
without other measures as considered
appropriate by the RBI.
A bank facing financial difficulties and
approaching a point of non-viability shall be
deemed to achieve viability if within a
reasonable time in the opinion of the RBI, it will
be able to come out of the present difficulties if
appropriate measures are taken to revive it. The
measures including a permanent write-off or
public sector injection of funds are likely to:
a. restore confidence of the depositors/
investors;
b. improve rating/ creditworthiness of the
bank and thereby improving its borrowing
capacity and liquidity and reduce cost of funds;
and
c. augment the resource base to fund
balance sheet growth in the case of fresh
injection of funds.
(ii) Temporary principal write-down on CET1 Trigger Event:
(a) Temporary write down If a CET1 Trigger Event (as described below)
occurs, the Issuer shall:
(i) notify the Trustee;
(ii) cancel any coupon which is accrued and
unpaid to as on the write-down date; and
(iii) without the need for the consent of
Bondholders or the Trustee, write down the
outstanding principal of the Bonds by such
amount as the Issuer may in its absolute
discretion decide and in no case such amount
shall be less than the amount required to
immediately return the Issuer‟s Common Equity
Tier 1 Ratio (as defined below) to above the
CET1 Trigger Event Threshold (as defined
below) (the “CET1 Write Down Amount”).
Notwithstanding the above, if the RBI has
agreed with the Issuer prior to the occurrence of
the relevant CET1 Trigger Event that a write-
down shall not occur because it is satisfied that
actions, circumstances or events have had, or
imminently will have, the effect of restoring the
Common Equity Tier 1 Ratio to a level above
the CET1 Trigger Event Threshold that the RBI
and the Issuer deem, in their absolute discretion,
to be adequate at such time, no CET1 Trigger
Event in relation thereto shall be deemed to have
occurred.
A Write-Down may occur on more than one
occasion and (if applicable) the Bonds may be
written down following one or more
Reinstatements pursuant to Condition 41(ii)(b)
(Reinstatement). Once the principal of a Bond
has been written down pursuant to this
Condition 41(ii)(a) (Temporary write down), it
may only be restored in accordance with
Condition 41(ii)(b) (Reinstatement).
If the Issuer is amalgamated with any other bank
pursuant to Section 44 A the BR Act before the
Bonds have been written down, the Bonds will
become part of the Additional Tier 1 capital of
the new bank emerging after the merger. If the
Issuer is amalgamated with any other bank after
the Bonds have been written down pursuant to a
CET1 Trigger Event, the amalgamated bank can
reinstate these instruments according to its
discretion. Further, if the Issuer is amalgamated
or acquired by another bank after being written
down pursuant to a CET1 Trigger Event and the
holders of equity shares get positive
compensation on such amalgamation or
acquisition, the holders of Bonds which have
been written down pursuant to a CET1 Trigger
Event will have to be appropriately
compensated.
CET1 Trigger Event means that the Issuer‟s or
its group‟s Common Equity Tier 1 Ratio is:
(i) if calculated at any time prior to March
31, 2019, at or below 5.5%; or
(ii) if calculated at any time from and
including March 31, 2019, at or below 6.125%,
(the “CET1 Trigger Event Threshold”);
Common Equity Tier 1 Ratio means the
Common Equity Tier 1 Capital (as defined and
calculated in accordance with the Basel III
Guidelines) of the Issuer or its group (as the case
may be) expressed as a percentage of the total
risk weighted assets (as defined and calculated
in accordance with the Basel III Guidelines) of
the Issuer or its group (as applicable);
The purpose of a write-down on occurrence of
the CET1 Trigger Event shall be to shore up the
capital level of the Issuer. If the Issuer or its
group breaches the CET1 Trigger Event
Threshold and equity is replenished through
write-down of the Bonds, such replenished
amount of equity will be excluded from the total
equity of the Issuer for the purpose of
determining the proportion of earnings to be
paid out as dividend in terms of rules laid down
for maintaining the capital conservation buffer
(as described in the Basel III Guidelines).
However, once the Issuer or its group (as the
case may be) has attained a total Common
Equity Tier 1 Ratio of 8% without counting the
replenished equity capital, from that point
onwards, the Issuer may include the replenished
equity capital for all purposes.
(b) Re-instatement Following a write-down pursuant to Condition
41(ii)(a) (Temporary write down), the
outstanding principal amount of the Bonds may
be increased up to a maximum of aggregate of
the CET1 Write Down Amounts (a
“Reinstatement”). Bonds may be subject to
more than one Reinstatement.
Subject to any further or alternative conditions
specified in the Basel III Guidelines from time
to time, any Reinstatement is subject to the
following conditions:
(i) a Reinstatement may only occur on or
after the first anniversary of the date on which
the Issuer first paid dividends to ordinary
shareholders following the most recent
occurrence of a CET1 Trigger Event;
(ii) the aggregate amount of any
Reinstatements on all Tier 1 loss absorbing
instruments in any 12-month period must not
exceed the lower of:
A. the Relevant Percentage of the Annual
Dividend; and
B. 25% of the Annual Dividend,
where: (I) “Annual Dividend” means the total
dividend declared in respect of the Issuer‟s
ordinary share capital during that 12-month
period; and (II) “Relevant Percentage” means
the ratio of (i) the Common Equity Tier 1
Capital (as defined and calculated in accordance
with the Basel III Guidelines) of the Issuer
created by all write-downs on outstanding Tier 1
loss absorbing instruments (“Write-Down
Generated CET1”) to (ii) total Common
Equity Tier 1 Capital (as defined and calculated
in accordance with the Basel III Guidelines) of
the Issuer minus Write-Down Generated CET1;
and
(iii) the aggregate amount of any
Reinstatements on all Tier 1 loss absorbing
instruments, plus the aggregate amount of any
coupon amounts paid on any Tier 1 loss
absorbing instruments, in any 12-month period
cannot exceed the maximum amount that the
Issuer can distribute pursuant to capital
conservation buffer restrictions contained in the
Basel III Guidelines.
The Issuer must give notice of any
Reinstatement to the Trustee at least 21 Business
Days prior to such Reinstatement.
42. Order of claim of AT 1
instruments at the event of
Gone concern situation
The order of claim of various types of
Regulatory capital instruments issued by the
Bank and that may be issued in future shall be
as under:
Additional Tier I debt instruments will be
superior to the claims of investors in equity
shares and perpetual non-cumulative preference
shares and subordinate to the claims of all
depositors and general creditors & subordinated
