The Chairman
All Regional Rural Banks
Dear Sir,
Payment of Interest on Savings Bank Account on a Daily Product Basis
Please refer to para 2(iii) of the directive DBOD.No.Dir.BC.151/C.347-85 dated
December 27,1985, in terms of which interest in the case of savings deposits,
shall be calculated on the minimum balance to the credit of the deposit account
during the period from the 10th to the last day of each calendar month.
- On a review, it has been decided that the interest on balances in savings
bank accounts would be calculated on a daily product basis with effect from
April 1, 2010. Regional Rural Banks are advised to work out modalities to effect
a smooth transition to the revised procedure.
Yours faithfully
(R.C.Sarangi)
Chief General Manager
