Apart from the stake sale in AMC business, Canara Bank in November had also informed about selling stakes in registrar and transfer agent business through Canbank Computer Services and housing finance company Can Fin Homes to monetise its assets.
Shares of Canara Bank today closed flat at Rs 360.90 per unit on BSE.
