Sushanta said...

Varun, RBI has recently increased the ATM withdraw in a single day to Rs. 1Lac. .........where u r writting as 50k.

Pls confirm

Varun Reddy said...

Sushanta:
Actually ATM withdrawal per day depends on the banks...It varies from bank to bank. Most of the banks offer Rs 50000 atm withdrawal per day.
Only few banks will be offering 1 lakh withdrawal from ATM like ICICI, HDFC.
So at present Rs 50,000 is maximum.

Sushanta said...

thanks Varun for the clarification
