Both banks signed MoU for acquisition on Ashad 29, 2079. Since Civil Bank is being acquired by Himalayan Bank the Due Diligence Audit has endorsed a share swap ratio of 100: 80.28 for acquisition. For instance, if a shareholder in Civil Bank owned 100 shares, his share in the combined company would be reduced to 80.28 shares.

As of now, the paid-up capital of CBL is Rs. 9.07 Arba whereas the paid-up capital of HBL is Rs. 14 Arba. Also, HBL and CBL endorsed dividends of 19.11% and 5.26% respectively for the Fiscal Year 2078/79.

Since this is an amalgamation in the nature of the acquisition, the share trading of only "Civil Bank Limited" shall be halted as per the guidelines for amalgamation and acquisition of companies that have registered securities issued by the Securities Board (SEBON) for the purpose of matching the shares of the target institution, re-registration of securities, dematerialization, and listing of securities.
