Binod Kumar, managing director and chief executive of Indian Bank, has put a figure of ₹35 lakh crore on where he wants the lender's total business to stand in 2032, The Economic Times reported. The comparable number passed ₹15 lakh crore in June, an increase of over ₹7 lakh crore across the preceding 15 months. Indian Bank is currently the seventh largest bank in India and has been profitable since 2002. Its reach extends to more than 6,000 branches, 29,000 touchpoints and upwards of 70,000 Business Correspondents. On the lending side, MSME advances are rising at roughly 17 to 18 per cent a year, ahead of corporate credit at somewhere near 14 to 15 per cent. The bank is also widening its digital services and running awareness work on cyber fraud.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The ₹35 lakh crore number is a target Binod Kumar set out, not a result, and it sits against a business that crossed ₹15 lakh crore in June after adding more than ₹7 lakh crore in 15 months. The growth rates on record are segment level: about 17 to 18 percent in MSME loans and around 14 to 15 percent in corporate lending. The distribution figures, over 6,000 branches, 29,000 touchpoints and more than 70,000 Business Correspondents, are the network the bank already has rather than what it plans to add. Indian Bank's total business, last reported at ₹15 lakh crore in June, is the running figure against which the 2032 target can be measured.
