Under SLI, women are given occupational skills training, financial literacy, and credit counselling in addition to credit through Self-Help Groups (SHGs) or Joint Liability Groups (JLGs).

‘Teaching–the–Teacher’ programme has been the second biggest contributor for overall CSR programmes covering 15 lakh teachers and 1.6 crore students, the report said.

“We are trying to bring about holistic, sustainable, long-term impact in their [people’s] lives helping them as well as the nation progress,” Ashima Bhat, Group Head-CSR, Business Finance & Strategy Administration and Infrastructure at HDFC Bank.

Among other key initiatives, the company constructed/refurbished over 6,900 school sanitation units; implemented Holistic Rural Development Programme (HRDP) in over 1,100 villages in 17 states as on 31 Mar 31 against 870 villages across 16 states in the year ago period; trained 7.6 lakh women in SHGs and 72,000 farmers and provided over 21,000 renewable units, the report said.
