KYC, NPA
As regards fulfilling know-your-customer (KYC) norms, Ajai Kumar said that this is a regulatory requirement and the even old customers have to adhere to them.
On non-performing assets (NPAs), the chairman said despite the economic slowdown, the bank managed to recover/upgrade loans worth Rs 1,509 crore in 2012-13 against Rs 758 crore in the previous fiscal.
The bank, he said, is among the top five public sector banks in almost 13 parameters.
The shareholders approved a resolution to pay a dividend of Rs 19 per equity share of Rs 10 each for 2012-13.
