1. Top Banks on Social
Media (India)
June, 2014

2. HIGHLIGHTS:
• HDFC bank has overtaken Yes bank in the month of
June on social media. HDFC bank performs the best
on social media followed by ICICI Bank. Yes Bank was
the most social bank last month.
• AXIS Bank & ICICI Bank fared the best on Facebook.
They have the highest Facebook score of 92 & 90
respectively, but they did not do exceptionally well on
Twitter.
• Yes Bank has achieved the highest score on Twitter
in the last month. This could be because of their
Twitter campaigns around the World cup that fetched
them visibility on the platform.
• Standard Chartered and Citibank India don’t have
Twitter handles specifically for India. Their scores are
determined only by their Facebook activities. This is the
reason for their low score compared to other banks.
• ICICI Bank, AXIS Bank & HDFC led the industry in
terms of Facebook fans over the last three months,
However Facebook page of SBI Bank has the highest
growth in fans over the last three months
