No evidence of any notability, and claims in the article don't match the passing mentions ("The bank played a key role in the history of Banking in India" sourced to a list which includes this bank as "stillborn"?) or don't convey any notability (being the 18th something is hardly special).

Delete - nothing to suggest it is particularly noteworthy and the refs on the page only mention it in passing JMWt (talk) 16:11, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete -- One of the sources cited (a website) describes it as stillborn. It also mentions another bank of the same name of 1828, presumably also shortlived. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:10, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Non-notable bank. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:21, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: the argumentation for this bank's notability is ludicrous. Reference #4 is simply a list, without any proof of significance. // MitYehor (talk) 06:20, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - on the basis of the evidence presented and the absence of any other sources, it does not seem to be notable enough for its own article. Dunarc (talk) 22:10, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
