Bandhan, conceptualized and founded by Mr. Chandra Shekhar Ghosh - started as a Society that stood for poverty alleviation and women empowerment through sustainable livelihood creation in rural Bengal undertaking microfinance activities.
Bandhan Group is a purpose-driven financial services group built on a simple belief: growth must have intent, impact must be rooted in integrity, and the future must be approached with clarity. What began as a mission to enable financial inclusion has evolved into a diversified group with a strong presence across banking, asset management, life insurance, technology and allied financial services. Across every vertical, our focus remains unchanged — to create long-term value for individuals, institutions, and communities.
Our businesses are unified by a shared philosophy: sustainable progress is achieved when trust leads, people come first, and decisions are guided by purpose.
Founded with a mission to empower underserved communities, Bandhan Group evolved from a grassroots microfinance initiative into a trusted financial institution, driven by purpose-led and inclusive growth.
Bandhan Group operates across multiple financial and technology-led businesses, each designed to address a specific need while contributing to a larger ecosystem of inclusive growth.
