Citibank is one of the first few private banking entities in India and its existence in the Indian market dates back to the early 20th century when India was still under British occupation. Citibank’s website claims that it opened its first office in India in 1902.

However, its decision to exit the retail banking market of India came as a rude shock for many. Citibank winded its retail banking business across 13 international markets including India, Europe, Middle East and the African region in April this year.

After the exit from the Indian market, the bank has been looking to sell off its customer markets in India. Citibank has been eyeing a bid of $2 billion and many banks are expected to submit their bid for the same. The list of interested banks includes India’s largest private sector lender HDFC, Kotak Mahindra Bank, InsuInd Bank, DBS India bank and Axis Bank.

However, at the forefront of Citibank asset acquisition bids are HDFC and Kotak Mahindra who have a valuation of $1 billion in revenue.
