Customer charges for use of ATMs for cash withdrawal and balance enquiry

RBI/2007-2008/260
DPSS No.1405 / 02.10.02 / 2007-2008
March 10, 2008
The Chairman / Chief Executive Officer
(All Scheduled commercial banks including RRBs)
Dear Sir
Customer charges for use of ATMs for cash withdrawal and balance enquiry
1. Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) have gained prominence as a delivery channel for banking transactions in India. Banks have been deploying ATMs to increase their reach. While ATMs facilitate a variety of banking transactions for customers, their main utility has been for cash withdrawal and balance enquiry. As at the end of December 2007, the number of ATMs deployed in India was 32,342. Commensurate with the branch network, larger banks have deployed more ATMs. Most banks prefer to deploy ATMs at locations where they have a large customer base or expect considerable use. To increase the usage of ATMs as a delivery channel, banks have also entered into bilateral or multilateral arrangements with other banks to have inter-bank ATM networks.
2. It is evident that the charges levied on the customers vary from bank to bank and also vary according to the ATM network that is used for the transaction. Consequently, a customer is not aware, before hand, of the charges that will be levied for a particular ATM transaction, while using an ATM of another bank. This generally discourages the customer from using the ATMs of other banks. It is, therefore, essential to ensure greater transparency.
3. International experience indicates that in countries such as UK, Germany and France, bank customers have access to all ATMs in the country, free of charge except when cash is withdrawn from white label ATMs or from ATMs managed by non-bank entities. There is also a move, internationally, to regulate the fee structure by the regulator from the public policy angle. The ideal situation is that a customer should be able to access any ATM installed in the country free of charge through an equitable cooperative initiative by banks.
4. In view of this, RBI had placed on its website an Approach paper and sought public comments. The comments received have been analysed. Based on the feed back a framework of service charges would be implemented by all banks as under:

Sr.No.
Service
Charges
(i)
For use of own ATMs for any purpose
Free (with immediate effect)
(2)
For use of other bank ATMs for balance enquiries
Free (with immediate effect)
(3)
For use of other bank ATMs for cash withdrawals
  • No bank shall increase the charges prevailing as on December 23, 2007 (i.e. the date of release of Approach Paper on RBI website)


  • Banks which are charging more than Rs.20 per transaction shall reduce the charges to a maximum of Rs.20 per transaction by March 31, 2008


  • Free - with effect from April 1, 2009.
5. For the services at (1) and (2) above, the customer will not be levied any charge under any other head and the service will be totally free.
6. For the service number (3) the charge of Rs.20/- indicated will be all inclusive and no other charges will be levied to the customers under any other head irrespective of the amount of withdrawal.
7. The service charges for the following types of cash withdrawal transactions may be determined by the banks themselves:
    (a) cash withdrawal with the use of credit cards
    (b) cash withdrawal in an ATM located abroad.
8. Please acknowledge the receipt of the circular. A copy of the circular issued to your branches on this subject may please be submitted to us in due course.

Dear Tax Payers,

Income-Tax Department uses the registered contact details (Mobile number & E-mail ID) for all communications related to e-Filing. It is mandatory that all tax payers must have a valid contact details registered in e-Filing portal.

It is noticed that many registered users are not having authenticated contact details in e- Filing or may have provided details of other persons for convenience. This prevents the Department from interacting directly with taxpayers on their personal email and Mob ile.

Further, it has been observed that in many cases taxpayers are not able to reset their password  since  the  email  communication  frothe  Department  may  be  sent  to  their registered email or Mobile which may be different from the taxpayers personal email or mobile.

Hence, it is requested that all the e-Filing users may immediately update and authenticate their correct contact details so that the communication  can be sent to the valid Mobile number and E-mail ID.

The process of updating and authenticating the contact details are below.

the e-Filing portal, Activation link would be sent to the registered E-mail ID and a One Time Password (OTP also called PIN) is sent to the registered Mobile Number. User needs to Click on the Link provided in the E-mail and enter the OTP received in the mobile number for Successful activation of the registered user in e-Filing portal

the current Mobile number and E-mail ID. The user should update their personal Mobile number and Email so that the updated contact particulars are registered with the Department or confirm that the Mobile number and email ID already registered is their valid personal contacts.

Upon  submitting  thdetails,  Department  would  immediately  send  OTPs (PIN1 & PIN2) to new mobile number and Email ID. The respective PINs- PIN1 and PIN2 received through Mobile number and E-mail ID should be entered by them in the respective input fields to authenticate that the email ID and mobile are correct. Upon successful validation the Mobile number


and email ID would be updated in the taxpayers profile and the process would be complete.

If  thPINs  arnot  received  within  specified  time  (say  2  minutes)the taxpayer may opt for Resend PINsoption. The PINs once received will be valid for 24 hours.

The taxpayers are advised to validate the contact details using the
PINs received within 24 hours. If PINs are not validated within 24 hours, the taxpayer has to login and follow the same procedure as above again.



Note: 

Taxpayers are advised to follow the process mentioned above in the interest of the security of their e-filing account and to directly receive communication from the Department about status of processing and issue of refunds etc.

This is a one-time process to validate the mobile number and email ID. However, whenever the taxpayer changes the Mobile Number or email ID in their Profile, the process will be repeated to ensure that the particulars provided are correct.

One mobile number or email ID can be used for a maximum of 10 user accounts as the Primary Contact- Mobile Number and Email ID in e-Filing. This is to ensure that family members (not exceeding 10 separate users) not having personal email or mobile can be covered under a common email or mobile, but in general taxpayers should have their own unique email ID and Mobile registered with the Department.

The  taxpayer  can  enter  any  other  persons  email  or  mobile  number  in  addition  as  a Secondary Contact (without any restriction on the number of user accounts linked as  a Secondary Contact). Using  P rofile  S e ttings  à      My  P rofi le ”   the taxpayer can  select to include the Secondary Contact to also receive emails, alerts etc.
