In a BSE filing made during market hours today, SBI said that its board approved raising additional AT1 bonds to the extent of Rs 5,000 crore by way of issuance of Basel-III compliant debt instruments, within the overall capital plan earlier approved by the board for raising equity during the financial year 2020-21 (FY21).
