• These are the offices for which the revised timings are applicable.This is inclusive of recess period of 30 minute from 1 pm to 1.30 pm.The notice of a change in terms of Section 9A of the Industrial Disputes has also been issued.
• These are determined by the market dominion such that the service outlets located at suburban districts commence business at 9 am.This is to suit the requirements of customers who would ideally be residents of the locality and would prefer to carry out some banking activity before proceeding to work.
• Branches/service outlets located in business district areas catering to the banking requirements of business houses/corporates/traders commence business hours usually at 10 am or 11 am.
• This would ensure speedy and timely support to the branches, the circular said.The bank is predominantly a customer-service oriented business and good customer service is the key to its growth and stability, the circular reiterated.
