Scaling up its Gold Loan Scheme, J&K Bank extended its gold loan facility to four of its business units i.e. Rehari and Shalamar Road in Jammu and Barzulla besides S R Gunj in Kashmir.
The bank’s President Arun Gandotra snapped the formal ribbons at the business units in Jammu in presence of Zonal Head Jammu Central – I Sunit Kumar, Cluster Heads while as in Srinagar he did the honours in presence of Zonal Head Kashmir Central – I Syed Rais Maqbool, Cluster Heads amid gatherings of valuable customers, prospective clients and the officers of the bank.
Speaking on the occasions, Arun Gandotra said, “Gold is gold and has stayed so always in terms of its rich value both in monetary and cultural terms. And with the kind of surge that gold prices have seen in the recent times, it remains as one of the best commodities to invest in. And from here begins the role of our Gold Loan Scheme that allows for loans ranging from Rs 10000 to Rs 15 Lacs against gold ornaments and jewelry thereby ensuring that you use your gold to meet your varied requirements without losing it.”
“Although the bank launched this product almost a year ago but the facility was restricted to some designated business units. And keeping in view the response we got, we are extending this important facility to business units like these and I urge all of you to avail this wonderful product and make your gold earn more value for you while remaining in your ownership”, he added.
Notably, JK Bank Loan against Gold Ornaments and Jewellery is the product designed with the best of features suited to the needs and tastes of varied sections of society having a low rate of interest, annual rollover facility and maximum quantum of finance available in the industry.
