What will be the impact on customers
According to the bank expert, merger and Vijaya Bank customers may have some problems. According to Expert, it is possible to gradually change the bank's check book, account number or customer ID. According to GS Bindra, former Chief General Manager of Punjab & Sind Bank, banks can change the IFSC code of the branches after the merger. However, the final decision on these changes will be decided by the board.
