On 5 March, the bank in an exchange filing had said, "No such negotiations events took place. However, the matter in regard to Yes Bank was discussed at the meeting of the Central Board of the Bank on 05.03.2020 and an in-principle approval has been given by the board to explore investment opportunities in the Bank."
Nilesh Jain said that the investors who are willing to invest in the SBI stocks should see how the situation unfolds for at least a week. He said that the developments till now indicate that things are still at the proposal stage.
He said that the investors may consider buying the SBI shares only if the levels come around Rs 245-250. At current levels of around 270, it is not advisable to trade for now. The technical analyst sees a pull back effect on the stock which could take it to Rs 280-290.
