Yes Bank shares have been in an uptrend for the last three trading sessions. Yes Bank share price opened with gains today and hit intraday high 18.60 level each, up 15 percent over the past three straight sessions. However, profit-booking started in Yes Bank shares and it came to 18.15 level within minutes of the opening of the stock market today.

According to stock market experts, there can be a lot of volatility in the share price of Yes Bank due to the lock-in of three years. ICICI Bankaxis Bank, HDFC bank, IDFC First Bank is ending this month on 13th March. They further say that these private lenders bought stake in Yes Bank 10 And It’s Up Now 18, which means these private banks have a chance to book profits after the three-year lock-in is over.

In fact, Yes Bank It’s a rally in bank stocks.” There could be a good opportunity for shareholders who had bought Yes Bank shares during the December 2022 rally when the private lender sold its 40 per cent stake in Dish TV to JC Flowers.

When asked why he is advising Yes Bank shareholders to exit this rally, which entered the December rally, Avinash Gorakhkar said, “Three-year lock-in of ICICI Bank, IDFC First Bank, axis BankHDFC Bank etc are coming in fast and some profit booking is expected from these banks as they have bought Yes Bank shares at approx. 10 each level.”

However, Ravi Singhal, CEO, GCL Broking, said there may not be immediate profit booking by these private banks whose three-year lock-in ends on March 13, 2023. Ravi Singhal said a lot would depend on the Q4FY23 results of the private lender. If it manages to report an improvement in its NIM, it may look at private bank holdings yes bank Share for longer.”
