The OFS has an option to additionally sell up to one crore shares in the event of oversubscription, SBI Life said in a filing to the stock exchanges. The stake sale is being done to meet the SEBI norm of 25 per cent minimum public shareholding, SBI Life said. The floor price for the sale has been fixed at ₹770 a share.
