Which was the second bank in India with limited liability?
 

  • A.Punjab National Bank
  • B.Imperial Bank of India
  • C.New Bank of India
  • D.State Bank of India

Answer: A

Correct answer: Punjab National Bank

Punjab National Bank, founded at Lahore in 1894, was the second Indian bank with limited liability - Oudh Commercial Bank of 1881 being the first. Limited liability mattered: it let shareholders subscribe capital without risking their whole fortunes, which is what made joint-stock banking possible at all.
