In a major expansion move, RBL Bank has opened 23 full-service branches across multiple states, taking its total network to 603 branches.
The new branches are spread across Keralam, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand, and Gujarat. The bank said this expansion supports a balanced presence in both high-growth metro cities and fast-developing regional markets.
Focusing on Non-Resident (NR) business, the bank has opened 13 out of the 23 new branches in Keralam, considering the state’s large NR population and strong remittance-driven banking potential.
R Subramaniakumar, Managing Director & CEO, RBL Bank, said: “The opening of 23 branches on a single day marks a key milestone in our growth journey….As we continue to grow, our emphasis remains on leveraging branches as a fulcrum for asset growth through increased branch-led sourcing, building granular liabilities, and deepening customer relationships through higher product penetration across geographies.”
Looking ahead, the bank plans to open 200 branches in FY27, aiming to take its total branch network to over 800.
Earlier, on October 18, 2025, the Board of Directors of Emirates NBD Bank (P.J.S.C.) and RBL Bank approved entering into definitive agreements for the former to acquire a controlling stake in the bank through a primary infusion of approximately $3 billion (₹26,850 crore).
