History

DCB Bank has over the past two years doubled the branch network presence to 323 branches (as on 30 June 2018) from 160 branches two years back. This relatively recent growth spurt has been instrumental in driving business growth as well visibility. The Bank has come a long way from humble beginnings in the 1930s, in Mumbai from a series of Co-operative bank mergers with the Ismailia Co-operative Bank Limited and the Masalawala Co-operative Bank respectively.

These 2 banks later merged to form Development Co-operative Bank, that changed to Development Credit Bank after it was granted the scheduled bank license by the Reserve Bank of India in May 1995. Development Credit Bank Ltd. went on to successfully offer shares to the public by an Initial Public Offering (IPO) in 2006. DCB Bank Limited is the new name of the Bank, changed with due regulatory approval in January 2014.[5]
