Habibur Rahman; EVP & Head of Corporate Banking Mohammad Tariqul Amin; EVP & Head of Operations Saif Uddin Ahmed; SVP & Head of SME Sharif Mohammad Mahsin; SVP & Head of ICT Division Md. Sajjadul Islam; SVP & Head of Transaction Banking & Cash Management Division Shahin Akter Nuha; VP & Head of Financial Inclusion Cell Md. Anisur Rahman Majumder; along with other senior officials of the Bank.

At the event, Managing Director M. Shamsul Arefin said, “Launching the government fee payment service through the online A-Chalan platform is a unique milestone for NCC Bank in the realm of digital banking. This will make these tasks highly time-saving and convenient for customers and will further simplify the government’s revenue collection process. This service reflects our continuous efforts to ensure the highest level of satisfaction for our customers.”

It is noted that the existing over-the-counter payment facility under Bangladesh Bank’s Automated Challan System will remain operational as before.
