To meet global capital requirement norms (or Basel III norms) of public sector banks in the country, the Union Finance Ministry is likely to finalise Rs 14,000-crore capital infusion into the banks by the end of this month. An official concerned said that the government has received capital requirement proposals from all public sector banks and it is evaluating their proposals at the moment. Hopefully, capital allocation to banks would be finalised by August-end.
