Although banks in India are closed on quite a number of days in September due to public holidays, regional holidays and weekend holidays, you can do some basic banking conveniently from ATMs scattered around the country. It is possible to withdraw money from your account through an ATM, deposit money and also make some service requests for your account.
While almost all banks’ ATMs accept major credit and debit cards, other banks’ ATMs will charge for more than a few transactions. So, you need to know this before using other banks ATMs. Also, standard fees apply to your own bank’s ATM transactions above a certain number of free transactions per month.
