HDFC Bank to add 100 branches in east by FY16

Private sector lender HDFC Bank is planning to add 100 branches in the eastern region, taking its total tally to 600 branches by the end of ongoing financial year.

Currently, we have about 500 bank branches across the east and by this year we will touch 600, HDFC Bank Branch Banking Head Atul Barve said here today on the sidelines of the launch of film titled Dhanchayat.

Of the 600, West Bengal will have 195-200 branches.

As of June 2015, the number of branches of the bank stood at 4,011 in the country.

Barve said the bank has considerable number of '2 man' and '3 man' bank branches in many rural locations.
