In a significant move to enhance financial inclusion and customer satisfaction, Indian Bank has announced a complete waiver of minimum balance charges for all Savings Bank accounts, effective July 7, 2025.

Financial Inclusion at the Forefront

The waiver is aimed at benefiting a wide segment of society—including students, senior citizens, small business owners, and rural populations—who often struggle to maintain mandatory minimum balances. This initiative is part of Indian Bank’s broader strategy to promote inclusive banking.

This initiative is a part of our continued efforts to make banking more inclusive and user-friendly for all,” said a senior official from Indian Bank. “We believe this will encourage more people to open and maintain savings accounts, bringing more individuals into the formal financial system.

Relief on Borrowing: MCLR Cut by 5 Basis Points

Alongside this customer-friendly move, Indian Bank has also announced a 5 basis point reduction in its one-year Marginal Cost of Funds Based Lending Rate (MCLR), bringing it down to 9.00%, effective July 3, 2025.

This is expected to make retail and business borrowing slightly more affordable, providing relief in the current high-interest-rate environment.

A Dual Approach to Customer Empowerment

The combination of eliminating penalties and lowering borrowing costs demonstrates Indian Bank’s focus on offering value-driven financial services and empowering a broader customer base.

The bank’s actions are in line with government and regulatory goals to deepen the reach of formal banking and support the underserved.
