Employees will benefit
On the salary front, the IBA and bank employee unions last year reached an agreement for a 17 per cent wage hike across all public sector banks (PSBs) in India, amounting to Rs 12,449 crore. If the Center increases the salaries of bank employees, then 3.8 lakh employees of the private sector and about 9 lakh employees of the public sector will benefit. The MoU signed by IBA and bank employee unions following talks held on December 7, 2023, included a commitment to finalize the salary revision within 180 days.
