SBI is likely to raise at least $500 million through the issue, with the final size dependent on investor demand. The initial price guidance has been set at 120 basis points over U.S. Treasuries.
The lender has begun marketing the bonds and is expected to complete the sale before the end of the week, the bankers said, requesting anonymity as they are not authorised to speak to media.
The State Bank of India is set to tap into the dollar debt market, aiming to raise a minimum of $500 million by issuing five-year bonds. Marketing for this public offering is underway, with expectations to finalize the sale within the week. This move follows a previous postponement of a larger issue due to escalating borrowing costs.
SBI had planned to raise $1 billion through a dollar bond sale in June but deferred the issuance after borrowing costs rose due to heavy supply from Indian lenders.
The lender did not immediately reply to a Reuters email seeking comment outside business hours.
