About Dhanlaxmi Bank

History

Dhanalakshmi Bank, established on 14th November 1927 in Thrissur, Kerala, marked its inception with a modest capital of ₹11,000 and a workforce of merely 7 individuals. Achieving the status of a Scheduled Commercial Bank in 1977, it has evolved into a national entity with 549 touchpoints across Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Delhi, and West Bengal.

From 1927 to 1937, the bank primarily operated within Thrissur. It expanded its footprint to Ernakulam and Palghat in 1937. By 1947, Dhanalakshmi Bank’s deposits reached ₹31 lakhs. The year 1962 marked the acquisition of three banks—Lakshmi Prasad Bank, Radhakrishna Bank, and Parli Bank. Subsequently, the bank expanded its presence across Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, and Karnataka in 1978, covering the entirety of southern India.

During 1985-90, the bank ventured beyond southern India, inaugurating its first branch in Bombay. The bank diversified its services into segments like bill discounting and letters of credit. In 1993, it obtained a restricted foreign exchange license to manage rupee accounts for non-residents. Further diversification occurred with forays into consumer, corporate, and merchant banking.

In March 1996, Dhanalakshmi Bank conducted an initial public issue, issuing 80 lakh equity shares at ₹50 per share to fortify its capital base. In 2000-01, a capital restructuring took place by converting partly paid to fully paid shares, reducing subscribed and paid-up capital.

To meet RBI’s stipulation of increasing net worth to a minimum of ₹100 crores, the bank initiated a Right Issue of capital worth ₹274,750,500, which was oversubscribed. The bank is committed to technological innovation and has implemented a Centralised Banking Solution (CBS) on the Flexcube Platform in 150 branches, covering nearly 95% of its total business.

The bank’s customer-centric approach is evident in its initiatives, such as introducing an International Debit Card in collaboration with Visa International and joining CASHNET, India’s first independent nationwide shared ATM network. The bank has also entered the realms of life and non-life insurance, acting as a corporate agent for MetLife India and Iffco Tokio, respectively.
