RBI CIRCULAR 6 AUG 20 - Current account


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) issued a circular on August 6, 2020, stating that banks should not open current accounts for customers who already have credit facilities like cash credit (CC) or overdraft (OD) from the banking system. All transactions must be routed through the CC/OD account. This means if you have both a CC/OD and a current account with a bank, your current account may be closed, and you should only operate through your CC/OD account.
