Revised Bank charges: Here’s why and how much you have to pay

Amlyn

Major Indian banks — SBI, ICICI, HDFC, and Axis — have decided to charge users for cash transactions above certain limits and for a few facilities which were free till now. More banks are expected to follow suit. The new charges ‘Bank transaction fee’ are aimed at discouraging cash transactions though banks might end up profiting from them hugely.

Below is what you must know if you have an account in any of these banks:

State Bank of India

  1. From April 1, SBI will permit savings bank account holders to deposit cash three times a month free of charge. Beyond that, it will charge Rs 50 plus service tax for every transaction.
  2. In a case of a current account, the levy could go as high as Rs 20,000.
  3. SBI account holders will also have to keep a minimum balance in their accounts, failing which they will be fined. The fine will be lower for rural areas.
  4. In metropolitan areas, there will be a charge of Rs 100 plus service tax if the balance falls below 75 percent of the minimum available balance of Rs 5,000. If the shortfall is 50 percent or less, the bank will charge Rs 50 plus service tax. SBI used to have such charges in 2012.
  5. Withdrawal of cash from ATMs will attract a charge of up to Rs 20 if the number of transactions from ATMs of other banks exceeds three and Rs 10 for more than five withdrawals from SBI ATMs.
  6. However, SBI will not levy any charge on withdrawals from its own ATMs if the balance exceeds Rs 25,000. In the case of withdrawals from ATMs of other banks, there will be no charge if the balance exceeds Rs 1 lakh.
  7. SBI will charge Rs 15 for SMS alerts per quarter from debit card holders who maintain an average quarterly balance of up to Rs 25,000 during the three months. There will be no charge for UPI/USSD transactions of up to Rs 1,000.bank transaction fee
