Frequently Asked Questions

For Depositors

Commercial Banks: All commercial banks including branches of foreign banks functioning in India, local area banks and regional rural banks are insured by the DICGC. Cooperative Banks : All State, Central and Primary cooperative banks, also called urban cooperative banks, functioning in States / Union Territories which have amended the local Cooperative Societies Act empowering the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to order the Registrar of Cooperative Societies of the State / Union Territory to wind up a cooperative bank or to supersede its committee of management and requiring the Registrar not to take any action regarding winding up, amalgamation or reconstruction of a co-operative bank without prior sanction in writing from the RBI are covered under the Deposit Insurance Scheme. At present all co-operative banks are covered by the DICGC. Primary cooperative societies are not insured by the DICGC.
  • The DICGC insures all deposits such as savings, fixed, current, recurring, etc. deposits except the following types of deposits
  • Deposits of foreign Governments
  • Deposits of Central/State Governments
  • Inter-bank deposits
  • Deposits of the State Land Development Banks with the State co-operative bank
  • Any amount due on account of and deposit received outside India
  • Any amount, which has been specifically exempted by the corporation with the previous approval of Reserve Bank of India
  • Each depositor in a bank is insured up to a maximum of 5,00,000 (Rupees Five Lakhs) for both principal and interest amount held by him in the same right and same capacity as on the date of liquidation/cancellation of bank’s licence or the date on which the scheme of amalgamation/merger/reconstruction comes into force.
    The DICGC while registering the banks as insured banks furnishes them with printed leaflets for display giving information relating to the protection afforded by the Corporation to the depositors of the insured banks. In case of doubt, depositor should make specific enquiry from the branch official in this regard.
    The deposits kept in different branches of a bank are aggregated for the purpose of insurance cover and a maximum amount of up to Rupees five lakhs is paid.
    The DICGC insures principal and interest upto a maximum amount of five lakhs. For example, if an individual had an account with a principal amount of 4,95,000 plus accrued interest of 4,000, the total amount insured by the DICGC would be 4,99,000. If, however, the principal amount in that account was five lakhs, the accrued interest would not be insured, not because it was interest but because that was the amount over the insurance limit.
    All funds held in the same type of ownership at the same bank are added together before deposit insurance is determined. If the funds are in different types of ownership or are deposited into separate banks they would then be separately insured.
    Yes. If you have deposits with more than one bank, deposit insurance coverage limit is applied separately to the deposits in each bank.

    If an individual opens more than one deposit account in one or more branches of a bank for example, Shri S.K. Pandit opens one or more savings/current account and one or more fixed/recurring deposit accounts etc., all these are considered as accounts held in the same capacity and in the same right. Therefore, the balances in all these accounts are aggregated and insurance cover is available upto rupees five lakhs in maximum.

    If Shri S.K. Pandit also opens other deposit accounts in his capacity as a partner of a firm or guardian of a minor or director of a company or trustee of a trust or a joint account, say with his wife Smt. K. A. Pandit, in one or more branches of the bank then such accounts are considered as held in different capacity and different right. Accordingly, such deposits accounts will also enjoy the insurance cover upto rupees five lakhs separately.

    It is further clarified that the deposit held in the name of the proprietary concern where a depositor is the sole proprietor and the amount of Deposit held in his individual capacity are aggregated and insurance cover is available upto rupees five lakhs in maximum.

    Deposits held in joint accounts (revised w.e.f. April 26, 2007)

    If more than one deposit accounts (Savings, Current, Recurring or Fixed deposit) are jointly held by individuals in one or more branch of a bank say three individuals A, B & C hold more than one joint deposit accounts in which their names appear in the same order then all these accounts are considered as held in the same capacity and in the same right. Accordingly, balances held in all these accounts will be aggregated for the purpose of determining the insured amount within the limit of  5 lakhs.

    However, if individuals open more than one joint accounts in which their names are not in the same order for example, A, B and C; C, B and A; C, A and B; A, C and B; or group of persons are different say A, B and C and A, B and D etc. then, the deposits held in these joint accounts are considered as held in the different capacity and different right. Accordingly, insurance cover will be available separately upto rupees five lakhs to every such joint account where the names appearing in different order or names are different.

    For Banks

    Insured banks are given two month time period to make premium payment to DICGC on its total deposits. In case of delay in premium payment, banks are liable to pay penal interest at 8 per cent above the Bank rate from the beginning of the financial half year till the date of payment.Hence, it is in bank’s own interest to pay premium within due date so that payment should reach to DICGC for half year ending March on or before November 30 and for half year ending September on or before May 31.
    Bank is liable to pay penal interest of two months for even one day delay i.e. for half year ending March 2016, due date is Nov 30.However,if payment is made to DICGC on Dec 01, interest charged from bank would be from Oct 01 till Dec 01.Penal interest charged is (Bank Rate + 8 %).
    It has been observed that many a times remittance made by a co-operative bank through other banks gets returned resulting in imposition of interest.Therefore, banks are advised to enquire from remitting bank whether the payment has been actually credited to DICGC.
    Premium payable by bank needs to be determined on the basis of its total deposits as on last day of the preceding half year (for half year ending march 2016, deposit base is September 30, 2015 and last date for payment is Nov 30).{DICGC General Regulations 19(2)}.Banks wilfully making statement which is false in any material or omittingany substantial information shall be punishable with imprisonment for a term which may extend to three years and shall also be liable to fine as per act.{DICGC Act Section 47(1)}.
    DI Returns should reach DICGC as soon as possible after the commencement of each calendar half-year but in any event not later than the last day of the second month of that half-year duly certified by two officials authorised by bank.{DICGC General Regulations 19(3)}. Further, if a bank fails to submit deposit Insurance returns within due date, it shall be punishable with a fine of two thousand rupees in respect of each offence and in the case of a continuing failure, with an additional fine which may extend to one hundred rupees for every day during which the failure continues after conviction for the first such failure.{DICGC Act Section 47(2)}.
