Largest private sector lender HDFC Bank on Sunday said it has received the mandate to collect donations for the PM Cares Fund.
"It's an honour to have been given this opportunity. I'd urge all of us to make the most of it and help the government in this gargantuan effort that it is making to ensure minimum disruption to our life," Aditya Puri, its Managing Director said.
Users can pay conveniently from their homes using a slew of channels, including debit cards, credit cards and other digital banking channels, it said in a statement.
Puri said India has acted in time and exuded confidence that the country will emerge victorious from these trying times.
The HDFC group has already committed Rs 150 crore into the fund for the government's relief and rehabilitation measures.
