IDBI Bank

IDBI Bank is one of the leading commercial banks of India. It has been in existence for more than 40 years. It was incorporated on 1 July 1964 as the Development Financial Institution (DFI) and continued its operations under this name till 30 September 2004. During this period, it played a major role in helping the country stand on its feet and was a major name in the domain of developmental finance. From 1 October 2004, it became a complete commercial bank. In its role as a DFI, it did not limit itself to just project financing; it also focused on balanced industrial development all across India. A major point in its history came when IDBI Bank merged with IDBI Ltd., which also happens to be its parent company, on 2 April 2005.
