New Delhi: Indian Air Force (IAF) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the country's largest lender State Bank of India (SBI) for the use of a Corporate Card in its Unit run Canteen.

The Indian Air Force said in a tweet that the collaboration will improve the functioning of URC wherein they would avail an interest-free credit for up to 50 days in addition to saving the cost of interest on an overdraft facility.
