Kolkata, Jan 6 (IBNS) : IDBI Bank has appointed VMCS, a sister concern of Village Financial Services Pvt. Ltd., one of the leading microfinance institution of West Bengal (VFS), as one of its Business Correspondents (BC) in the state.

Having received this affiliation from IDBI Bank as Its BC, VMCS will now represent this bank in the remote places to reach out to the unbanked people with basic banking services. VMCS announces opening of 6 new branches at Gurap, Mogra, Brishibpur, Kalyanpur, Berachampa and Baduria on the very first week of this New Year.
