New Delhi [India], May 15: Axis Bank, one of the largest private sector banks in India, has joined hands with Antara Senior Care, India's only integrated senior care ecosystem and a wholly owned subsidiary of Max India Limited, to enhance the well-being and quality of life of India's senior population. Through this collaboration, Antara offers its comprehensive suite of products and services, including Care Homes, Care at Home, and AGEasy (a distinctive online and offline marketplace with solutions for chronic health condition management). These services will be available to over 20 lakh customers of Axis Bank's Silver Linings Program, an initiative specially designed to address diverse needs of customers above 60 years of age.
Axis Bank's Silver Linings Program is an exclusive initiative that supports seniors by offering them enhanced banking solutions and curated benefits to address their wellness, lifestyle and travel needs.

In India, the demographic shift toward an aging population is creating increasing demand for comprehensive senior-centric care solutions.

This trajectory is driven by changing family structures, increased financial independence among seniors, and a rising preference for holistic wellness and active aging solutions. The partnership between Axis Bank and Antara Senior Care underscores a shared commitment to empower India's seniors with access to reliable, and comprehensive care services. It's a pioneering model for senior care that seamlessly combines financial infrastructure with a robust ecosystem to support seniors.

This partnership will enable the Bank to serve its customers beyond financial solutions and offer them much more in terms of care and support. Through this collaboration, we aim to provide a holistic approach to address the needs of the elderly, ensuring that they have access to a comprehensive ecosystem ranging from personalised banking to trusted home care services."

India's top LNG importer Petronet seeks $1.4 bn local loan
India's largest importer of natural gas Petronet LNG Ltd. is seeking a loan of at least 120 billion rupees ($1.4 billion) for a new petrochemical plant and an LNG terminal , according to people familiar with the matter. Local lenders including Axis Bank , State Bank of India and Union Bank of India are considering to join the facility, which is among the company's largest fundraising exercises, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing private matters. The borrower is seeking bids from banks in groups or individually, they said, adding that SBI Capital Markets has been appointed as adviser for the deal. The facility for triple-A rated Petronet comes at a period of muted activity for India's loans space, where bank lending grew 9.5% as of June 27, the lowest growth rate since March 2022, according to the latest data from the Reserve Bank of India. If the financing goes through, it would be one of the biggest local currency loans for the country this year, according to Bloomberg-compiled data. Spokespeople for Axis Bank , Petronet, SBI, SBI Capital Markets and Union Bank of India didn't immediately reply to emails from Bloomberg News seeking comment. Proceeds from the loan will partially fund the construction of a new petrochemical complex in Dahej, located in the southwest coast of Gujarat in India, the people said, adding that it will help diversify the company's earnings beyond the LNG space. The project is estimated to cost 206.85 billion rupees, according to the company's website. The New Delhi-based firm is also setting up a separate five million tons land-based LNG import terminal at Gopalpur, located on the east coast in Odisha. The latest loan could carry a tenor of more than 10 years, the people said. The pricing could be lower than SBI's one-month marginal cost of funds based lending rate of 7.95% currently, a benchmark gauge of local currency borrowings, two of the people said.
