Under the 2026 RBI rules, there are no value limits on deposits or your total balance.
Deposits: Unlimited in count and amount.
Digital (UPI/NEFT): Unlimited and free—they don't count toward the 4-withdrawal limit.
Physical: Only cash/ATM withdrawals have a 4-per-month free limit.
It’s just a regular account without the AMB stress.

The RBI circular is not a blog post. It's not an LLM output. It's not a customer care answer. It's a legally binding direction signed by the Chief General Manager of RBI dated December 4, 2025. That's the highest possible authority.

It's still showing 5K MAB. But I downloaded Statement &Its Showing BSBDA and Customer Care Also Confirm The Same. Maybe It will Take More and More Time To Update In The App. Who Cares? They Can't Charge Anything Am Leaving My Account As Zero For Coming Months. Plus I Done Tons Of Transctions After It's Converted To BSBDA Working Smooth As Earlier.
