      Mahindra & Mahindra, the largest utility vehicle maker in the Indian auto market, has tied-up with the leading PSU (public sector undertaking) bank – Indian Overseas Bank (IOB) – to provide easy finance options to the customers for its range of passenger vehicles. Mahindra & Mahindra signed MoU (Memorandum of Understanding) with IOB on Saturday, in Chennai. While from the Mahindra’s side MoU was signed by Mr. Arun Malhotra (Senior Vice-President of sales and customer care), from IOB’s side General Manager K Subrahmanyam exchanged the documents.

      Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Subrahmanyam said, "We want to enter into the commercial vehicle financing market. And through this MoU, we are entering into it.” The bank offers loan on commercial vehicles at 12.5 per cent interest.
