Public lender, Bank of Baroda (BoB) has announced a tie-up with Hyundai Motor India (HMIL) for financing the automaker's vehicles.

As per the agreement, BoB will extend the finance facility to the potential buyers of Hyundai's vehicles. The service will be available at all the branches of the bank spread across the country.
