History

The history of the bank dates back to the year 1970 when Advocate Bhaurao Sabnis and Shri. Vasantrao Purohit took the initiative, against heavy odds, in founding a bank for the predominantly middle class people of Kalyan. It was around the same time that ‘The Kalyan Peoples Co-perative Bank’ had failed leading to severe discontent among the people. Against this background, raising share capital for a bank was an extremely daunting task but their determined and relentless efforts culminated in a modest beginning on 23rd December, 1973 with share capital of INR 50,000/- and deposits of INR 80,000/-, within 180 sq.feet office with three employees.

Since then, the bank is continuously striving to improve quality and set standards in customer service and become a 'Janata' bank in the truest sense.
