What the cash actually costs
  • For savings accounts covered by the RBI allowance, other-bank ATM transactions are free up to a monthly limit; after that, a transaction may cost up to ₹23 plus applicable taxes. This is not one of the RBI’s six metro centres, so the allowance here is the higher one: at least five free other-bank transactions (cash and noncash combined) a month.
  • Own-bank ATMs provide at least five free cash transactions a month and free noncash transactions. Basic Savings Bank Deposit Accounts follow separate rules. On a card issued abroad your own bank’s international withdrawal and exchange charges apply instead. If the machine offers to bill you in your home currency, choose rupees — the conversion rate on that offer is set by the machine, not by your bank.
  • Choose a well-lit ATM, preferably at a bank branch. Shield your PIN, avoid help from strangers and use your bank’s support number if a withdrawal fails or the machine retains your card.
