“Change has always been at the heart of progress, and I’m excited to share one that is redefining HR in banking. The successful go-live of Oracle Cloud Payroll and AI Agents at Tamilnad Mercantile Bank (TMB) marks a first-of-its-kind achievement in India’s BFSI sector—a milestone built on vision, collaboration, and innovation.
This implementation shows the power of combining automation, AI, and human insight to reduce manual effort, enhance compliance, and enable smarter decision-making, while creating meaningful experiences for employees and HR teams. None of this would have been possible without the incredible teams at TMB, Oracle, and Kovaion, whose dedication turned this vision into reality.
