[edit]History

[edit]19th Century

On 24 April 1865, a group of Englishmen at Allahabad founded Allahabad Bank. Allahabad Bank is therefore now the oldest joint stock bank in India. By the end of 19th century it had branches at Jhansi, Kanpur, Lucknow, Bareilly, Nainital, Calcutta, and Delhi.

[edit]20th Century

In the early 20th century, with the start of Swadeshi movement, Allahabad Bank witnessed a spurt in deposits. In 1920, P & O Banking Corporation acquired Allahabad Bank with a bid price of Rs.436 per share. In 1923 the bank moved its head office and the registered office to Calcutta for reasons of both operational convenience and business opportunities. Then in 1927 Chartered Bank of India, Australia and China acquired P&O Bank. However, Chartered Bank continued to operate Allahabad Bank as a separate entity.
On 19 July 1969, the Government nationalized Allahabad Bank, together with 13 other banks.
In October 1989, Allahabad Bank acquired United Industrial Bank, a Calcutta-based bank that had been established in 1940. Two years later, Allahabad Bank established AllBank Finance Ltd, a wholly owned Merchant Banking subsidiary.

[edit]21st Century

The government's ownership of Allahabad Bank fell in October 2002 after the bank engaged in an Initial Public Offering (IPO) of 10 crores of shares, each with a face value Rs.10. The IPO reduced the Government's shareholding to 71.16%. Then in April 2005 the bank conducted a second public offering of 10 crores of shares, each with a face value Rs.10 and selling at a premium of Rs.72. This offering reduced the Government's ownership to 55.23%.
In June 2006 the bank opened its first office outside India when it opened a representative office in Shenzen, China. In February 2007, Allahabad Bank opened its first overseas branch, in Hong Kong. In March, the bank's business crossed Rs.1,00,000 crores mark.
