This is an initiative of the Bank aimed at helping the public fight COVID-19, by delivering banking services at their doorsteps and thus helping them stay indoors, as much as possible. Customers of any bank can withdraw cash from these ATMs free of charges.

In the next few days, more vans will be deployed and the public will have facility to demand ATMs in their areas. The Bank is working to extend the facility to Bangalore also during the lockdown.

The facility was inaugurated in Chennai by Mr. Susil Chandra Mohanta (GM & Convenor, SLBC, Tamil Nadu), in the presence of Mr. Eqbal Manoj (Vice President and Zonal Head Chennai, Federal Bank) and Rajeev V C (Deputy Vice President and Regional Head Chennai, Federal Bank).

The first ATM van in Mumbai was flagged off in Mumbai by Mr. Deepak Govind PA (Vice President and Zonal Head Mumbai, Federal Bank). Mr. Mahesh R (Vice President and Regional Head Mumbai, Federal Bank) and Mr. Ciyad MS (Deputy Vice President, Mumbai Zone, Federal Bank) were also present.
