Lender Axis Bank will buy the investment banking and equities units of Enam Securities for $456 million.
The all-stock transaction will see unlisted Enam's shareholders take a 3.3 percent stake in Axis Bank, India's third-largest private sector lender with a market value of about $13 billion, and may spur further dealmaking in the cut-throat brokerage and investment banking industry.
Enam's shareholders, who founded the firm in 1984, will receive 5.7 Axis shares for each Enam share, the companies said.
