"The 8,000th machine was installed at the tier-IV town of Appipatti, Theni in Tamil Nadu," Tata Communications Payment Solutions said in a statement.


"There has been an uptake in bank accounts in these regions, making the ramp-up of the ATM infrastructure in the country an imperative," the company's chief executive Sanjeev Patel said.


It offers a 'plug and play' ATM deployment model for the banks, which reduces the cost of operationalising to 25 per cent of a brown label ATM, the company claimed, adding that Federal Bank, DBS, Solapur Janata Sahakari Bank have opted for this.
