The Symbol

The Imperial Bank of India was transformed into the State Bank of India in 1955. This was the first Symbol of SBI. I worked in SBI for 32 years from Dec1978 prior to my voluntary retirement in Oct 2010. The Symbol was later changed to look like a key hole. This Symbol reflected the strength of SBI and its large reach.

    So essentially SBI, in those days, used to be the "State Banyan of India" :)
    A neatly rendered design.
