The new branch will provide best-in-class banking products and services to 1,00,000 customers. These include women, senior citizens, retailers, traders, NRIs, Government Departments, private institutions, and start-ups. It will also facilitate taking banking services to more of the unbanked/underbanked sections of the people in India.

HDFC Bank’s journey in Tamil Nadu began way back in 1995 when it opened its first branch in the state at Chennai-ITC Centre Branch. Since then, the bank has been growing its presence across Tamil Nadu through a combination of bank branches and digital banking initiatives. At present, the bank has 476 branches in 180 cities/towns across 39  districts of Tamil Nadu.

This new branch comes soon after HDFC Bank announced its plans to upgrade 24 Government schools into smart schools in the state.
