South Indian Bank's Tamil Nadu positioning.
South Indian Bank operates ~138 branches across Tamil Nadu with Chennai (T. Nagar, Anna Nagar, OMR), Coimbatore (R.S. Puram, Avinashi Road), and Madurai coverage. Strong Coimbatore textile SME base plus Chennai IT and Malayali-diaspora customer base. Pricing of 8.50-8.85% for salaried; 8.85-9.20% for self-employed Coimbatore textile/foundry SME.
Tamil Nadu's 7% stamp + 4% registration is steep, but South Indian Bank's Coimbatore branches have deep relationships with the Tirupur-Coimbatore textile-export cluster (a community with significant Kerala-origin entrepreneur overlap). The bank accepts confirmed export LC documentation plus 3-year GST-3B as income proof for textile-merchant home loans, an underwriting niche that captures the bulk of mid-sized Tirupur exporters whose ITRs run conservative relative to actual cash flows.
