Yes Bank AT1 Bonds: Why the Supreme Court Reversed the ₹8,415 Crore Write-Down

Yes Bank reported ₹8,415 Crore. Those are the figures as filed — what moves the price is how they sit against what the market already expected, not their absolute size.

Against that, the stock is -2.2% on the day at ₹16.05, and has returned -30.9% over three months. It sits 37% below its 52-week high, which means a good deal of bad news was already in the price. The banks sector has moved -4.2% over the same period, so Yes Bank is running 26.7 points behind its peers.

For Yes Bank, the question is how much of this is already reflected in the price and how much re-rates the banks peer set alongside it.
