Andhra Bank said the government has infused Rs 1,172 crore into the bank as part of recapitalisation package.
The capital infusion is aimed at shoring up equity base of the bank to enhance lending to productive sectors of the economy.
The shareholders of the bank had earlier approved issuance of over 7.45 crore shares at a price of Rs 157.28 a share on preferential basis.
The capital infusion would help enhance lending capacity of the state-owned banks to meet the credit requirement of the economy in order to maintain and accelerate the economic growth momentum.
