Frequently Asked Questions (IMPS charges)3 questions

What is the standard charge for imps charges across Indian banks?

Charges for imps 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 imps charges?

Waivers depend on meeting required account balance criteria, using digital banking channels (NEFT/RTGS/UPI), or submitting a dispute if debited wrongfully.

How do I avoid paying imps charges altogether?

You can often reduce imps 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.
