Bandhan Bank, that started operations less than four years ago, now has a total of 1,000 bank branches. The bank opened a new branch today at Haltu in Kolkata which was inaugurated by the General Secretary of Ramakrishna Mission and Ramakrishna Math, Swami Suvirananda. With a network of 3,014 Doorstep Service Centres that the bank already has, the total number of banking outlets now stands at 4,014 across 34 of the 36 states and union territories in India.
Chandra Shekhar Ghosh, MD & CEO, said, “This is a big milestone for Bandhan Bank. We started the bank with 501 bank branches in August of 2015. In just about four years, we have doubled that count to 1,000. We have always aimed at making banking accessible to all, and this landmark of 1,000 branches is another step in that direction.”
The announcement of the 1,000th branch coincided with the inauguration of the bank’s new state-of-the-art Head Office in Salt Lake City, Kolkata.
