SBI to hire 12,000 personnel, add 250 new branches during FY27: Chairman

State Bank of India (SBI) intends to hire about 12,000 personnel and add around 250 new branches to its network in the ongoing financial year, said C S Setty, Chairman of the country's biggest lender. In terms of recruitment, I think we would be looking at around 11,000 to 12,000 appointments across both clerical and officer cadres this year. This number may vary depending on retirements and emerging requirements, but I expect we should close the year with around 12,000 recruitments, he told PTI in an interaction. Last year, we have done fairly large recruitment because we took 1,500 specialist IT officers. This year, we do not need such a large number on the IT (information technology) side, he said. With a workforce of over 2.45 lakh employees as of March 2026, SBI is among India's largest employers. SBI had hired 4,640 officers, 19,340 associates, and 1,653 contractual staff in 202526, taking the total number of hires to 25,633, as per the bank's annual report for FY26. On
