# As on June 30, 2003.
@ Population group-wise classification of branches is based on 1991 Census.
— Negligible.
+ Though Benaras State Bank merged with Bank of Baroda and Nendugadi Bank Ltd. with Punjab National Bank w.e.f. June 20, 2002 and January 31, 2003 respectively, the same could not be effected in the system for want of details of the merged branches from the transferee banks. Further, Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd. which was a Non-scheduled bank earlier, has been treated as a scheduled bank w.e.f. April 12, 2003.
Notes:
1.Figures in bracket indicate percentage to total in each group.
2.Number of branches exclude administrative offices.
