Speaking on the HDFC Bank Summer Treat Smita Bhagat, Country Head, Government and Institutional Business, E-Commerce and Start-ups at HDFC Bank said, “We are very excited to launch Summer Treats in partnership with CSC for millions of HDFC Bank customers residing in semi-urban and rural India. Our large bouquet of attractive offers is an attempt to make consumers’ purchases more rewarding during these difficult times. Our partnership with CSC gives us the ability and reach to offer our rewarding offers to the most remote parts of the country. Furthermore, customers don’t have to go any farther than the nearest Village Level Executive (VLEs) to fulfil their banking and financial needs. The 1 lakh VLEs will act just like branches of HDFC Bank."

Dinesh Kumar Tyagi, CEO, CSC SPV said, “Common Service Centres (CSC) is a Digital India initiative of the Government of India for rural entrepreneurship and empowerment of the citizen. We are delighted to have partnered with HDFC Bank. The 1 lakh strong VLE network across the length and breadth of the country will help the general public avail banking and financial products, services at attractive Summer Treats offers, much closer to where they are. This would enhance CSC VLE credibility besides enhancing his/her income substantially. This unique partnership will result in a financially inclusive society.”
