Maruti Suzuki India Limited has entered into a strategic vehicle financing partnership with Chhattisgarh Gramin Bank through a Memorandum of Understanding signed today. The collaboration is designed to provide retail financing solutions for new cars and commercial vehicles to a broader customer base.
The partnership will utilize Chhattisgarh Gramin Bank's extensive customer network, which operates across all districts of Chhattisgarh through over 600 branches and regional offices. The agreement aims to offer comprehensive and competitive financing options tailored to various customer profiles.
The MoU was formalized in the presence of senior leadership from both organizations, including Partho Banerjee, Senior Executive Officer for Marketing & Sales at Maruti Suzuki, and Vinod Kumar Arora, Chairman of Chhattisgarh Gramin Bank, along with other officials.
According to Banerjee, the collaboration strengthens Maruti Suzuki's commitment to making car ownership more accessible through competitive financing solutions that enhance the customer experience. The company operates through a network of over 4,500 sales outlets and 5,500 service centers nationwide, with an annual production capacity of 2.6 million units.
Arora stated that the partnership represents a strategic expansion of the bank's service offerings, aligning with its mission of enabling accessible vehicle financing solutions. Chhattisgarh Gramin Bank, a government-owned scheduled bank, focuses on financial inclusion and rural development while expanding its lending portfolio in agriculture, MSME, and retail segments.
