The bank was extending credit to a limited purpose. We express sincere thanks to FCBA for recognizing our achievement and presenting us with the award for best credit growth. We will maintain the same tempo in the future.
The new products introduced have covered various requirements of the customers. The Bank introduced Housing Loans, SHG Loans, JLG Loans, Mortgage Loans, Personal Loans, Petty Trader Loans, Education Loans, Vehicle Loans, Business Loans, to mention a few, reads a press note sent by the bank CEO Ch.

This has helped the farmers avoid visiting Head Office at Hanamkonda as well as made it possible for them to seek financial support at their nearest Branch, Rao underlined.
The main aim of the DCC Bank is to closely monitor the end use of the loan for the creation of assets and repayment of the loan through the income generated from the asset, the press release concludes.
