The Aftermath
Though RBI's decision to merge GTB with OBC came as a relief for the former's depositors, analysts and industry experts raised concerns about the way RBI handled the entire issue.
They said RBI had announced the merger of GTB and OBC, in less than 48 hours of
the imposition of the moratorium.

If the deal was already in process, they wondered why RBI took the extreme measure of imposing a moratorium instead of announcing the mandatory merger straight away. This step would have prevented panic and anxiety among GTB's depositors. Analysts also wondered why RBI rejected the proposal of equity injection from NewBridge, which would have solved the re-capitalization problem of GTB easily and could have prevented the bank's eventual collapse. They wondered why RBI favoured the merger with OBC and did not try for competitive bidding to acquire GTB. Moreover, though the interests of GTB's depositors were protected, its shareholders lost their total investments in the bank overnight (Refer Exhibits VI for GTB's Stock Performance)...
