25 September 2008 Thanks Vinod for your input.
But in the later stage of your reply, you have used the word Public Sector Bank.
Is public sector bank and nationalise banks mean same? or is there any difference between public sector bank and nationalise bank?

26 September 2008 Nationalised banks are those which are owned by government. Public sector banks are those in which governments own majority along with others.

26 September 2008 Thanks Srinivas for your input.
That means, Nationalised Bank and Public sector Bank does not mean the same?

Then how can we identify, what are the nationalise banks?

30 September 2008 You can visit the website of the bank and identify from the data. Or write to RBI and get the details.
