Telangana Grameena Bank (TGB) is a Regional Rural Bank serving customers across Telangana. The bank was originally established on March 24, 2006 as Deccan Grameena Bank and was renamed Telangana Grameena Bank in 2014. State Bank of India has been its sponsor bank since April 1, 2017. Under the One State, One RRB initiative, the Telangana branches of Andhra Pradesh Grameena Vikas Bank were merged with TGB with effect from January 1, 2025.
The amalgamation created a statewide rural banking network covering all 33 districts of Telangana. The bank currently reports 17 Regional Business Offices and 942 branches. TGB provides savings and current accounts, deposits, agricultural and retail loans, RuPay cards, mobile banking, internet banking, UPI, AEPS and other digital services. Customers can also use the bank’s missed-call balance facility after completing the required activation process.
