State Bank of India on Friday said it has received shareholders' approval to raise up to Rs 20,000 crore through sale of shares.

The country's largest lender held a general meeting of its shareholders in Mumbai to seek approval for the business as a special resolution, it said in a regulatory filing.

Shareholders' approval was sought "to create, offer, issue and allot such number of equity shares for an amount not exceeding Rs 20,000 crore” through a public issue or private placement that could include qualified institutional placement, global depository receipts, American depository receipts or a combination of any of these.

Shares closed 0.13 percent down at Rs 275.40 on the BSE.
