INTRODUCTORY
Recurring Deposit, commonly known as RD, is a unique term-
deposit that is offered by Indian Banks. It is an investment tool
which allows people to make regular deposits and earn decent
returns on the investment. Due to the regular deposit factor and
an interest component, it often provides flexibility and ease of
investments to users/individuals.
However, it is essential to know that RDs are different from Fixed
Deposits/FDs. RDs are flexible in most aspects. An RD account
holder can choose to invest a fixed amount each month while
earning decent interest on the amount. RDs are an ideal saving-
cum-investment instrument.
Most major banks in India offer Recurring Deposit Accounts, with
a term that often ranges between 6 months to 10 years, also
providing individuals with the opportunity to choose a term
according to their needs. However, the interest rate, once
determined, does not change during the tenure; and on maturity,
the individual will be paid a lumpsum amount which includes the
regular investments as well as the interest earned.
Features of a Recurring Deposit Account
Recurring Deposit schemes aim at inculcating a regular habit of
saving in people
The minimum amount for deposits often varies from one bank to
another. You could invest with an amount as small as Rs. 1000.
The minimum period of deposit is six months, while the maximum
period of a deposit is 10 years
The rate of interest is equivalent to that offered for a Fixed Deposit.
Therefore, the interest rates are higher than Savings Account.

Premature withdrawals are However, depending on the bank, they
may allow you to close your account before the maturity period on
certain conditions.
A Recurring Deposit can be funded periodically through Standing
Instructions that are usually instructions given by the customer to
the bank, to credit the RD account every month from his/her
Savings or Current Account.

CHAPTER 10: REMITTANCE OF
INSTALMENT

REMITTANCE OF INSTALMENT
Date of instalment
Instalments are to be deposited every month on or before the last
working day of each month to which it relates. Instalment
deposited in the calendar month to which it relates is treated as
instalment paid in time. Suppose a recurring deposit account is
opened on the 1st January. The next instalment is due in the month
of February of that year. If it is deposited even up to 28 February,
it is taken as paid in time. Thus, instalment when paid on any date
from 1st of day of that month till last day of the month deemed as
instalment deposited in time.
Mode of remittance of instalment
Instalment can be paid in cash, by cheque or by giving standing
instructions to the Bank to transfer the monthly installments from
the depositor's Saving Bank or Current Account or from the interest
earned on Fixed Deposit. The depositor may issue instruction to
the bank to transfer the monthly instalment out of his account. In
such case it will be the duty of the bank to transfer the amount on
due date. The customer would not be held liable for any fault for
delay in transferring of money on the part of the Bank. However,
if the customer does not maintain sufficient balance on due date,
then he/she is liable for penalty.
Remittance by cheque

Cheques drawn in favor of the depositor may also be accepted for
credit to his/her recurring deposit account, but the credit to the
account should be given only after realization.

CHAPTER 11: PAYMENT OF CHEQUES

INTRODUCTION
Obligation of bank to honor cheques While opening an account of
the customer, the banker takes a statutory obligation on itself to
honor the cheques drawn by the customer on his account. The
cheque issued by the customer on its banker is a written order to
the bank to pay the amount from his account as per instructions of
the cheque.
Scrutinize the cheque presented for payment Before making the
payment of the cheque the banker must scrutinize the cheque
properly. This chapter deals with the points to be observed while
scrutinizing the instruments/cheques.
FORM OF CHEQUE
Cheque must be drawn on the printed forms only supplied by the
bank. The bank has right to refuse the payment of cheques drawn
otherwise. In case of saving bank account withdrawal form is also
used to withdraw money from the account. In some exceptional
cases the bank may consider the request of the customer in written
form too.
Refusal of cheques containing extraneous matter
Cheque should not contain any extraneous matter like 'towards
premium on policy etc. The branches should refuse the payment of
such cheques,
Writing of cheque
1) Cheque should be written with non-delible ink. Ball point pen
can also be used for writing of cheque. But customer may be

discouraged to issue typed cheque as these cheque are more prone
to alteration.
a) Cheque e can be written in two different languages. Such cheque
can be paid provided it is in order otherwise.
BRANCH DRAWN ON CHEQUE
Cheque can be presented for payment only on the branch where
the customer is maintaining the account. Only the branch which is
maintaining account of the customer can make payment of the
cheque. So, it should ensure that it is drawn on our branch
DATE OF CHEQUE
Date
Date of the cheque is a material part of it. An undated cheque
should not be paid as it does contain complete order of the drawer.
A cheque presented for payment should not only be dated but must
bear the proper date. For this purpose, following point should be
consider
a) Date of presentation: The cheque presented for payment may
bear the date of presentation or a date prior to the date of
presentation or a future date. The bank can safely pay the cheque
which bear the date of presentation or a date prior to presentation
but not prior to six months. Cheques bearing featured date will not
be honoured
b) Postdated cheque

A cheque which bears the date which is subsequent to the date of
presentation is a post-dated cheque. For example, a cheque
bearing date 21.11.2000 is called post dated cheque if it is
presented for payment on 11.11.2000. Such cheque should not be
paid before the date is bears. The order of the drawer is to pay the
amount of the cheque on the date of cheque. So, any payment
made by the bank before the date of the cheque is not authorised
by the customer and bank cannot debit the account before that
date.
c) Stale or antedated cheque
Antedated is the cheque which bears the date which is prior to date
of presentation. If a cheque bears the date which is six months
prior to the date of presentation, is called stale or out of date
cheque. The banks do not make payment of cheque which are stale
or out of date le cheque which is presented for payment after more
than six month from the date of issue of the cheque. A cheque
dated 1.1.2000 cannot be paid after 1.7.2000. So, bank should
refuse payment of such cheque which is having date more than six
months prior to the date of presentation. However, such cheques
can be paid after revalidated by the drawer under his signature as
in the record of the bank.
PAYEE
Writing of payee's name
The name of the payee should be clearly and unambiguously
written in the cheque
Payment of cheque to the joint payees/any one of the payees A
cheques drawn in favour of two or more persons (i.e., Shamash
Chand and S6, Gian Chand) should be paid to them jointly. Where
the cheque is in favour of alternative payees (i.e., Shamash Chand
or Sh. Gian Chand) payment can be made to either anyone of
them.

Fictitious name
If an order cheque is made payable to a fictitious person i.e., Lord
Krishna, or Lord Rama, it may be treated as payable to drawer.
Such cheques should be paid to the drawer only when they are
discharged by the drawer himself.
Payment of cheques in favour of limited companies/trust account
etc. No cheque drawn in favour of companies, trust, school,
colleges etc. should be paid to the third party because it is the
usual practice to credit the cheque to their account.
Specific payee
A cheque drawn 'pay to A only shall be paid to A only. The word
only restricts the negotiability and transferability of the cheque.
So, the bank should pay such cheque to the payee only.
AMOUNT OF CHEQUE
Amount written in words and figure differs Amount of the cheque
has very great significance. Amount of cheque is written both in
figures and words. Both the amount expressed in words and figure
must tally otherwise the bank will refuse the payment of the
cheque. Section 18 of Negotiable Instrument Act, 1881 states that
if there is a discrepancy in the amount expressed in words and
figures, the amount expressed in words should be taken as amount
ordered to be paid.

revolving cash credit for the farmers. The scheme envisages to
provide Cash credit limit to the farmers against the mortgage of
their land for all credit requirements of the farmers. It aims at

credit limit of Rs. 1.00 lac per acre subject to the maximum of Rs.
6.00 lac is provided to the farmers for fulfilling their socio-economic
liabilities. So far, Limits worth Rs 2192.03 crore has been
sanctioned to 152207 farmers in the state since inception of the

Key Observations Made by Experts: -
The Revolving cash credit scheme has proved beneficial to the
farmers its contribution has been multi directional. It has helped
the farmers in the purchase of production inputs, farm
investments, consumptions and social requirements and reduced
their dependence on high interest loans.
The recovery under the scheme has been excellent and more than
70% of the credit availed under the scheme has been spent for
productive purposes, whereas remaining was provided for socio-
economic needs.
Nabard is providing refinance facility for the scheme.
The scheme has covered medium, large farmers small and
marginal farmers as well.

The rate of interest on credit facility under the scheme is also low.

production credits besides creating provisions for consumption
credit. Therefore, its role is complementary to the institutions
credit available to farmers from different sources.
