SBI Savings Bank Account Minimum Balance Requirement.
MUMBAI. State Bank of India or SBI has introduced minimum balance requirement in savings accounts from April 1.
The minimum balance requirement for SBI customers varies depending on geographies such as metro, urban, semi-urban and rural. If the minimum balance drops below a particular threshold, SBI will charge a fee from the account holder.
SBI says the minimum balance in your savings bank account is the monthly average balance - the average of daily balances in the account during the month. SBI requires its savings bank account customers in metros to maintain a monthly average balance of Rs. 5,000.
Holders of SBI's savings bank account in urban areas need to maintain a monthly average balance (MAB) of Rs. 3,000, Rs. 2,000 in case of those in semi-urban areas and Rs. 1,000 in rural areas. This was said on Thursday by SBI - which recently merged its operations with six other banks - on Twitter.
