This increase shall be effective from January 1, 2022," the RBI had said in a circular. New ATM withdrawal charges from January 1, 2022 Bank customers will have to pay Rs 21 per transaction, instead of Rs 20, with effect from January 1, 2022, if they exceed the monthly limit of free transactions.

With the advent of ATMs, it has become really easy to withdraw or deposit cash. Long gone are the days of standing in serpentine queues. ATM transactions attract charges. A cardholder is also liable to pay other charges for holding a debit card. Let’s understand the ATM transaction charges in greater details. Know about New ATM Transaction Charges In August 2014, the Reserve Bank of India rolled out a new policy in which it revised the number of free ATM transactions offered by banks. The new policy provided that banks have to provide a certain number of free-of-cost ATM transactions per month to their customers. Under the revised policy, a customer is allowed eight free ATM transactions in a month. Of these, five are at the ATM of the bank which has issued the card. Three free transactions are permitted when the debit card is used at the ATM of other banks. The free transactions include both financial (cash payment and withdrawal) and non-financial transactions (balance enquiry, mini statement, changing ATM PIN, booking a fixed deposit etc.) Once the customer surpasses the ATM transaction limit, he is charged a nominal fee per transaction. Banks charge ₹ 20 for financial transactions and ₹8.5 for non financial transactions. These are the maximum amounts that can be charged by a bank. Charges are also levied for ATM transactions for PIN regeneration. In June 2019, Reserve Bank of India announced in its monetary policy that a committee involving all stakeholders, under the ...

All the lenders provide a limited number of free ATM transactions every month. Once the limit is exhausted, banks levy a charge along with taxes for any further transactions, including financial and non-financial services. This is in accordance with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) guidelines.

From this year, you would be paying no charges for bank transfers through NEFT (National Electronic Funds Transfer) or RTGS (Real-time Gross Settlement). The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) announced just after its July monetary policy review that processing charges levied on NEFT and RTGS transactions will not apply starting January 2020.

Typically, the rules are more relaxed for transactions made at your home branch. “Cash handling charges form a significant part of charges levied by the bank. While transacting from your home branch allows you higher limits, you still have to pay charges of ₹50-150 per transaction, if you exceed that limit," said Navin Chandani, chief business officer, BankBazaar.com, an online financial services marketplace.
