Yes Bank was the last private lender to hit the capital markets in 2005. Taking into account state-run banks as well, Punjab and Sind Bank last went public six years ago in 2010.

With RBI announcing on-tap licences for full-fledged banks, the number of lenders hitting the markets is bound to increase as the regulations call for mandatory listing within a defined timeframe.
