In the urban centres if there is a shortfall in the minimum balance of Rs 1,000 to Rs 2,000 then the fine can go up to Rs 35 if the shortfall is more than 75%. The new rates are effective October 1, 2019, the same day the bank will have to link the retail loans and micro small and medium enterprise loans to an external benchmark.
