Frequently Asked Questions (Debit card charges)3 questions

What is the standard charge for debit card charges across Indian banks?

Charges for debit card charges depend on the bank, account variant, channel (online vs branch), and transaction amount tier. In addition, 18% GST is added unless an official zero-rate policy applies.

Can I get a waiver or refund for debit card charges?

Cardholders must be provided clear upfront schedules of charges. If a card was upgraded or issued without explicit opt-in consent, charges can be fully reversed. Ground for reversal: Debit card was issued as an unsolicited premium upgrade without explicit consent.; Card is linked to a Salary/Corporate account that includes free debit card benefits.; Debit card has remained completely inactive/unactivated since issuance.; Annual spend waiver threshold (if applicable to the card variant) was achieved..

How do I avoid paying debit card charges altogether?

You can often reduce debit card charges by transacting online rather than at a branch, keeping the balance your account tier requires, or asking your bank which debit card variants carry no annual charge. Compare published charges before switching accounts.
