Vijaya Bank, was established by Attavara Balakrishna Shetty at Bunts Hostel in Mangalore
on October 23, 1931. Since it was established on Vijayadashami Day, it was
named ‘Vijaya Bank. The objective was to promote banking habits, thrift and
entrepreneurship among the farming community of Dakshina Kannada district in
Karnataka State. The bank became a scheduled bank in 1958. Vijaya Bank steadily
grew into a large All India bank, with nine smaller banks merging with it
during 1963-68. The bank was nationalised on April 15, 1980
