Punjab National Bank's Punjab positioning.
Punjab National Bank dominates its home state with 1,180+ Punjab branches — the densest PNB network of any state. Chandigarh Sector 17 Head Office, Ludhiana Pakhowal Road Zonal Office, Amritsar Hall Bazar, Jalandhar Civil Lines, and Patiala anchor the network. PNB is the single largest lender to Punjab state-government, PSEB, Punjab Police, and the Indian Army Chandimandir Western Command.
PNB is the structural default home-loan lender in Punjab — the bank originated in Lahore in 1894, has its Head Office in Delhi but its largest branch network in Punjab, and serves over 800,000 Punjab government salary accounts. Punjab's 7% stamp duty with 5% women rate (2% gender gap, India's widest) plus PNB's 8.40% women rate compounds to the lowest-cost female-applicant home purchase in north India. The bank's Jalandhar and Hoshiarpur NRI desks handle Canada/UK remittance customers, and the Chandimandir Western Command DSP gives serving Army personnel 8.40% with zero processing fee.
