The State Bank of India is the country’s largest and one of the oldest banks. There are more than 2.3 lakh employees currently working, and up to 4.4 million pensioners and family pensioners. It tells how big it is. To support this massive workforce, SBI runs a dedicated HRMS (Human Resource Management System) portal, available online and through the MyHRMS mobile app.
If you are an employee, pensioner, or a dependent family member, the HRMS system is your single access point for accessing your benefits, such as salary slips, pension slips, Life certificates, leave applications, reimbursements, GEMS, tax forms, and even booking SBI holiday homes.
Which HRMS Portal is Official and New?

Many users face confusion, mainly because the old portal is not inactive, but as per official data from SBI.co.in, they recently rebranded and changed the URL.
- Old portal:
https://hrms.onlinesbi.com
→ No longer active - New official portal:
https://hrms.bank.sbi
