The Himachal Pradesh State Cooperative Bank has launched a new loan scheme offering concessional interest rates to primary members of cooperative societies affiliated with the bank. The scheme was officially launched in the presence of Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu.

Speaking at the event, Bank Chairman Devendra Shyam stated that the initiative aims to support the financial needs of 15-16 lakh primary members of these cooperative societies. The scheme is designed not only to provide loans at reduced interest rates but also to promote financial inclusion, support agricultural development and drive broader economic growth. Under the new scheme, eligible members can avail loans at 0.10 basis points below the existing card rates across all applicable schemes.
