**Important Points to Note:

  1. All monetary values are given in Indian rupees, unless otherwise specified.
  2. Charges will be applied based on the extent of the shortfall in the balance. For example, if the required Monthly Average Balance (MAB) is INR 10,000 and the actual balance maintained is INR 4,000, the shortfall is 60%. Therefore, the charge will be 60% of the applicable fee (e.g., 60% of INR 400 = INR 240). If the charge for the shortfall is less than Re. 1, it will be rounded up to a minimum of Re. 1.
  3. The bank will levy Goods and Service Tax (GST) in addition to all other charges.
  4. The bank reserves the right to change these rates or charges or re-negotiate them depending on the relationship with a customer.
  5. Please go through the bank’s website, dbs.com/in, for the updated commission structure payable to the Bank by AMCs for different competing schemes of various Mutual Funds.
  6. For corporate employees, charges such as the monthly average balance, debit card annual fee, and ATM transactions may be waived based on the overall relationship consideration for the Corporate.
  7. Total Relationship Value (TRV) encompasses all family accounts and is calculated by summing the average monthly balances of savings accounts along with the end-of-period term deposits and investments.
  8. For customers maintaining TRV >= INR 2 Lacs, charges will not be levied for monthly account balance, debit card annual fee, ATM transactions, and payment services.
  9. Customers with a digital savings account who have an outstanding loan product (personal or mortgage loan) with DBS will not incur charges for non-maintenance of the monthly average balance. After the loan account is closed, customers must maintain the required minimum monthly average balance. Failure to do so will result in the appropriate charges being applied as specified above.
  10. If there is insufficient balance in your account, the bank will be unable to recover the applicable fees and GST. GST-related details will be available in your bank statement.
  11. Debit Card Annual Fee for a particular year will be waived off if a customer spends INR 50,000 or more in a membership year (one year from the date of issuance of the card) on the digibank debit card. Spends include domestic as well as international merchant transactions carried out on the digibank debit card either via online channels or at a physical POS. Spends do not include ATM withdrawals.
  12. Charges such as the monthly average balance, debit card annual fee, and ATM transactions will not be levied for empaneled corporates and/or customers receiving salary credit.
  13. Charges for customers with 'Financial Inclusion' accounts (such as BSBDA, Small Accounts, PMJDY) or 'Rural Accounts' will be governed by the Schedule of Charges applicable to their specific account type
