ALL ABOUT BANKKING BANK ACCOUNTS Types of Bank Accounts in India (Deposit Accounts) Traditionally banks in India have four types of deposit accounts, namely Saving Banking Accounts, Current Accounts, Recurring Deposits and, Fixed Deposits. 1. Saving Account - Saving accounts are opened to encourage the people to save money and collect their savings. The saving account holder is allowed to withdraw money from the account as and when required. The interest on Saving Bank Accounts was fixed by RBI and it was fixed at 4.00% on daily balance basis. RBI has deregulated Saving Fund account interest rates and now banks are free to decide the same within certain conditions imposed by RBI. Features of Saving Accounts a. There is no restriction on the number and amount of deposits. However, in India, mandatory PAN (Permanent Account Number) details are required to be furnished for doing cash transactions

exceeding 50,000.

b. Withdrawals are allowed subject to certain restrictions. c. A minimum amount has to be kept on saving account to keep it functioning.



2. Current Account - Current Accounts are basically meant for businessmen and are never used for the purpose of investment or savings. Features of Current Accounts a. The main objective of Current Account holders in opening these account is to enable them (mostly businessmen) to conduct their business transactions smoothly. b. There are no restrictions on the number of times deposit in cash / cheque can be made or the amount of such deposits; c. Usually banks do not pay any interest on such current accounts. d. The current accounts do not have any fixed maturity as these are on continuous basis accounts. e. Cheque book facility is provided and the account holder can deposit all types of the cheques and drafts in their name or endorsed in their favour by third parties. 3. Recurring Desposit Account: Recurring Deposit is a special kind of Term Deposit offered by banks in India popularly known as RD accounts which help people with regular incomes to deposit a fixed amount every month into their Recurring Deposit account and earn interest at the rate applicable to Fixed Deposits. Features of RD Accounts a. Recurring Deposit accounts are normally allowed for maturities ranging from 6 months to 120 months b. These accounts can be opened in single or joint names. Nomination facility is also available. c. Rate of Interest offered is similar to that in Fixed Deposits. d. Interest is compounded on quarterly basis in recurring deposits. 4. Fixed Deposit Account (FD) - The account which is opened for a particular fixed period (time) by depositing particular amount (money) is known as Fixed (Term) Deposit Account. The term 'fixed deposit' means that the deposit is fixed and is repayable only after a specific period is over. Under fixed deposit account, money is deposited for a fixed period say six months, one year, five years or even ten years. The money deposited in this account cannot be withdrawn before the expiry of period.

Features of FD Accounts a. The main purpose of fixed deposit account is to enable the individuals to earn a higher rate of interest on their surplus funds (extra money). b. The amount can be deposited only once. For further such deposits, separate accounts need to be opened. c. Fixed Deposit Account may be opened for a minimum period of 7 days and maximum period of 10 years. d. The minimum amount required to open a Fixed Deposit is Rs.1000. e. Withdrawals are not allowed. However, in case of emergency, banks allow to close the fixed account prior to maturity date. In such cases, the bank deducts 1% (deduction percentage many vary) from the interest payable as on that date.



Important Banking Terminology: 1. Basis points: It is the increase in interest rates in percentage terms. For instance, if the interest rate increases by 50 basis points (bsp), then it means that interest rate has been increase by 0.50%. One percentage point is broken down into 100 basis points. Therefore, an increase from 2% to 3% is an increase of one percentage point or 100 basis points. 2. Bank Rate: Bank Rate is the rate at which central bank of the country (in India it is RBI) allows finance to commercial banks. Bank Rate is a tool, which central bank uses for short-term purposes. Any upward revision in Bank Rate by central bank is an indication that banks should also increase deposit rates as well as Base Rate / Benchmark Prime Lending Rate. Thus any revision in the Bank rate indicates that it is likely that interest rates on your deposits are likely to either go up or go down, and it can also indicate an increase or decrease in your EMI. 3. Liquidity adjustment facility (LAF) is a monetary policy tool which allows banks to borrow money through repurchase agreements. LAF is used to aid banks in adjusting the day to day mismatches in liquidity. LAF consists of repo and reverse repo operations. 4. Repo Rate: Whenever the banks have any shortage of funds they can borrow it form RBI. Repo rate is the rate at which commercial banks borrows rupees from RBI. A reduction in the repo rate will help banks to get money at cheaper rate. When the repo rate increases borrowing form RBI becomes more expensive.



BANKING TERMS 1 Reverse Repo Rate: Reverse Repo rate is the rate at which RBI borrows money from commercial banks. Banks are always happy to lend money to RBI since their money is in the safe hands with a good interest. An increase in reverse repo rate can cause the banks to transfer more funds to RBI due to this attractive interest rates. One factor which encourages an organisation to enter into reverse repo is that it earns some extra income on its otherwise idle cash. 2. CRR (Cash Reverse Ratio): CRR is the amount of funds that the banks have to keep with RBI. If RBI increases CRR, the available amount with the banks comes down. RBI is using this method (increase of CRR), to drain out the excessive money from the banks. 3. SLR (Statutory Liquidity Ratio): SLR is the amount a commercial banks needs to maintain in the form of cash, or gold, or govt. approved securities (Bonds) before providing credit to its customers. SLR rate is determined and maintained by RBI in order to control the expansion of the bank credit. Need of SLR: With the SLR, the RBI can ensure the solvency of a commercial banks. It is

also helpful to control the expansion of the Bank credits. By changing SLR rates, RBI can increase or decrease bank credit expansion. Also through SLR, RBI compels the commercial banks to invest in the government securities like govt. bonds.

Main use of SLR: SLR is used to control inflation and propel growth. Through SLR rate the money supply in the system can be controlled effectively.

4. Marginal Standing Facility (MSF): MSF rate is the rate at which banks borrow funds overnight from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) against approved government securities. 5. Fiscal Deficit: A deficit in the government budget of a country and represents the excess of expenditure over income. So this is the amount of borrowed funds require by the government to meet its expenditures completely. 6. Direct Tax: A direct tax is that which is paid directly by someone to taxing authority. Income tax and property tax are an examples of direct tax. They are not shifted to somebody else. 7. Indirect Tax: This type of tax is not paid by someone to the authorities and it is actually passed on to the other in the form of increased cost. They are levied on goods and services produced or purchased. Excise Tax, Sales Tax, Vat, Entertainment tax are indirect taxes.

ALL ABOUT NBFCs Non-Banking Financial Company (NBFC): A Non- Banking Financial Company (NBFC) is a company registered under the Companies Act, 1956 are financial institutions that provide banking services without meeting the legal definition of a bank, i.e. one that does not hold abanking license. Difference between banks & NBFCs: A. NBFC cannot accept demand deposits; B. NBFCs do not form part of the payment and settlement system and cannot issue cheques drawn on itself; C. Deposit insurance facility of Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation is not available to depositors of NBFCs, unlike in case of banks.



Key Points Minimum capital requirement will be Rs 500 crore. Aggregate foreign shareholding in the new bank should not exceed 49 per cent for the first

five years. The NBFCs are allowed to accept/renew public deposits for a minimum period of 12 months

and maximum period of 60 months. They cannot accept deposits repayable on demand. NBFCs cannot offer interest rates higher than the ceiling rate prescribed by RBI from time to

time. The present ceiling is 12.5 per cent per annum. The deposits with NBFCs are not insured.

LICENSING FOREIGN BANKS IN INDIA RBI Draft Guidelines for Licensing of Foreign Banks - Foreign banks that want to set up operations in India will have to do so through an independent subsidiary. This means they cannot operate as a branch of the parent bank. Key Points:

o The initial minimum capital for a WoS will be Rs. 500 crore. o RBI said that the WoS (wholly-owned subsidiary) will be required to meet Basel-III

requirements (9 per cent Tier-I capital) right from Day One. For the first three years, the WoS will have to maintain Tier-I capital at 10 per cent.

o The Priority Sector Lending (PSL) requirement will be 40 per cent for WoSs, such as domestic scheduled commercial banks

o The new bank should open at least 25 per cent of its branches in unbanked rural centres.

SMALL AND PAYMENT BANK IN INDIA RBI issued two new categories of banksSmall and Payments which can improve financial inclusion. Important Points:

o The idea of small and payments banks was first proposed by the Nachiket Mor committee on financial inclusion.

o The minimum paid-up capital requirement of both small banks and payments banks is Rs. 100 crore.

o The payments bank will have to invest in government securities with a maturity of up to one year.

o Small banks will offer both deposits as well as loan products. o Payments banks will be used only for transaction and deposits purposes. Unlike small

banks, payments banks cant lend money to people.

BSBDA ACCOUNT (BASIC SAVING BANK DEPOSIT ACCOUNT): Under the guidelines issued on August 10, 2012 by RBI: Any individual, including poor or those from weaker section of the society, can open zero balance account in any bank. NO FRILL ACCOUNT NOW CALLED BSBDA ACCOUNT



Objective : The aim of introducing 'Basic Savings Bank Deposit Account' is very much part of the efforts of RBI for furthering Financial Inclusion objectives. More About BSBDA-Small Accounts: 1. In BSBDA, banks are required to provide free of charge minimum 4 withdrawals, through ATMs 2. Total credits in such accounts should not exceed 1 lakh rupees in a year. 3. Maximum balance in the account should not exceed 50,000 Rs at any time 4. The total of debits by way of cash withdrawals and transfers will not exceed 10,000 rupees in a month 5. Foreign remittances cannot be credited to Small Accounts without completing normal KYC formalities 6. Small accounts are valid for a period of 12 months initially which may be extended by another 12 months if the person provides proof of having applied for an Officially Valid Document.

FUND TRANSFER TECHNIQUES IN BANK: a) ELECTRONICS FUNDS TRANSFER: Fund Transfer Electronically National Electronic Fund Transfer (NEFT): The NEFT is a nationwide payment system facilitating one-to-one funds transfer. Under this system, individuals, firms and corporates can electronically transfer funds from any bank branch to any individual, firm or corporate having an acount with any other bank branch in the country participating in the system. NEFT RTGS Minimum Amount

Real Time Gross Settlement(RTGS) : RTGS can be defined as "as the continuous (real-time) settlement of funds transfers individually on an order by order basis (without netting"). (However, maximum amount per transaction is limited to Rs.50,000/- for cash-based remittances and remittances to Nepal.) Processing / Service Charges for RTGS and NEFT transactions

RTGS & NEFT :Inward Transactions : Free, no charge to be levied; RTGS: 2 Lakh to 5 Lakhs : Rs 30 per transaction; Above Rs 5 lakh - Rs 55 transactions; NEFT: For transactions up to Rs 10,000 : not exceeding Rs 2.50 (+ Service Tax) For transactions above Rs 10,000 up to Rs 1 lakh: not exceeding Rs 5 (+ Service Tax) For transactions above Rs 1 lakh and up to Rs 2 lakhs: not exceeding Rs 15 (+ Service Tax) For transactions above Rs 2 lakhs: not exceeding Rs 25 (+ Service Tax)



For NEFT we require IFSC Code of originating bank branches i.e, where a person need to transfer funds.

What is IFSC? IFSC or Indian Financial System Code is an alpha-numeric code that uniquely identifies a bank-branch participating in the NEFT system. This is an 11 digit code with the first 4 alpha characters representing the bank, and the last 6 characters representing the branch. The 5th character is by default 0 (zero) Eg. SBIN 0 012065 It Representing SBI Default to 0 Branch Code
