[Resolved]  HDFC Bank — hdfc bank ach debit return charges deducted without intimation

Apr 17, 2018

HDFC Bank Customer Care's response Dear Customer,

We have checked our records and confirm that the charge levied to your account on April 16, 2018, pertains to ACH debit return done on May 08, 2018 for Rs. 4816.00. In terms of Clearing guidelines, issued by RBI, the clear funds' balance available in the account at the beginning of the day would be considered for the purpose of ACH(s) received in the clearing. We note that in your said account, the clear fund's balance at the time of presentation of the said ACH(s), was not sufficient to cover the ACH(s) received in the clearing. Therefore the ACH(s) was returned due to insufficient funds and the corresponding charges for ACH(s) dishonor were levied to your account. Kindly note that these charges attract GST as applicable. We advise you to maintain sufficient clear funds balance in the account in the future, at the time of issuance of the ACH(s), to avoid the ACH(s) return charges being levied to your account.
