💡 Why this combination is interesting

PNB's Bengal strategy targets central government salary accounts (Customs, Income Tax, CBDT Kolkata, Eastern Railway, Coal India) where UCO Bank historically dominated. The merger with Oriental Bank and United Bank gave PNB a larger combined Bengal footprint than any pre-merger entity. For Kolkata Salt Lake and New Town salaried customers PNB's 8.40% women rate matches SBI, and West Bengal's 6% stamp duty with 2% urban rebate makes PNB-financed New Town flats competitive on total cost. The bank is particularly strong in Durgapur and Asansol industrial corridors.
