+<WRAP info>
+**Quick answer.** A **Current Account (CA)** is a non-interest-bearing bank account designed for business — unlimited transactions, cheque book, business net banking, NEFT/RTGS/IMPS without the per-day savings-account limits, and access to overdraft, working-capital and trade-finance products. Open it at any scheduled commercial bank: SBI, HDFC, ICICI, Axis, Kotak, BoB, Canara, IndusInd, RBL, Yes, Federal, Bandhan and others. Document set depends on entity type: a **proprietor** needs PAN + KYC + a single business proof (GSTIN / Shop Act / Udyam); a **partnership** needs the Partnership Deed + PAN of firm + KYC of all partners; a **Pvt Ltd / LLP** needs Certificate of Incorporation + MOA + AOA (or LLP Agreement) + Board Resolution + PAN of company + KYC of authorised signatories. Minimum Average Balance (MAB) ranges from **₹0** for startup variants (HDFC SmartUp, ICICI iStartup) and PSU "Power" accounts to **₹50,000–₹5 lakh** for premium relationship accounts. Total time from form to active account: **5–15 working days**. Legal anchors: **Banking Regulation Act 1949**, RBI's **KYC Master Direction**, **Companies Act 2013** (for company accounts) and **LLP Act 2008** (for LLPs).

+===== Anjali's story — "Zero MAB Pvt Ltd account in 7 days, saved ₹3,000/month" =====
+<WRAP center round box 80%>
+//Anjali Iyer, 31, founded an EdTech Pvt Ltd Co (Saral Learn Pvt Ltd) in Bengaluru in July 2024. Two co-founders, four early-stage employees. Bootstrapped — no funding yet. Needed a Current Account to receive GST refunds, run payroll, pay vendors, and to register on GeM (Government e-Marketplace) for a state-level pilot project.//
+> "My CA initially pushed me towards a regular HDFC Smart Business Current Account — ₹25,000 MAB and the standard suite. As a brand-new Pvt Ltd with negligible cash, ₹25,000 was real money to keep idle. I asked specifically for the **HDFC SmartUp** product after reading their start-up programme page. The branch officer at HDFC Bank Indiranagar was unfamiliar with it (most aren't, until you ask). I had to email the SmartUp programme team via the form on hdfcbank.com — they routed me to a dedicated SmartUp relationship manager who came to my office. Documents I gave: **Certificate of Incorporation** (downloaded from MCA21), **MOA + AOA**, **Board Resolution** authorising me as the signatory and naming the bank, **PAN of Saral Learn Pvt Ltd**, KYC (PAN + Aadhaar + photo + address proof) for both directors, registered office proof (rent agreement + electricity bill), and specimen signatures. Account opened on 8 August 2024 (7 working days after first visit). **MAB: ₹0 for the first 12 months** (waived under SmartUp; ₹10,000 from year 2). I got a Visa Business Debit Card, free RTGS/NEFT/IMPS, and a soft-corporate-card programme link. Compared with the standard ₹25,000 MAB account where two months of dipping below the threshold would have cost ~₹600 + GST per month in MAB-breach charges, the SmartUp variant has **saved roughly ₹3,000 a month in opportunity cost + avoided breach fees** through Year 1. Eight months in, I added a **HDFC SmartUp Sweep-In FD** linkage so that idle balances above ₹50,000 auto-sweep into FD."

+A current account is the single biggest enabling instrument for any business: vendors and customers expect a CA-backed cheque or RTGS, the GST portal needs a CA for refund crediting in most cases, GeM and ONDC won't onboard you without one, and most loan facilities (CC, OD, term loan) attach to a CA. Picking the wrong product costs months of avoidable charges.
+===== What a Current Account is — and how it differs from Savings =====
+A **Savings Account (SB)** is for individuals — earns interest (typically 2.5–4.5% pa), restricted on free transactions, daily / monthly withdrawal caps, no overdraft by default.
+A **Current Account (CA)** is for **businesses, professionals, and certain institutions** — earns **no interest** (RBI prohibits interest on CA balances under §21A of the Banking Regulation Act 1949 read with subsequent circulars), but offers:
+  * Unlimited deposits and withdrawals.
+  * Higher daily / per-transaction RTGS, NEFT, IMPS limits.
+  * Business cheque books (multi-leaf, account-payee cheques).
+  * Overdraft, cash credit, packing credit, LC/BG and trade-finance attachment.
+  * Bulk-transaction net banking (multiple-payee uploads).
+  * Customer-grade reconciliation reports.
+Statutory anchors:
+  * **Banking Regulation Act, 1949** — §5(b) defines banking; §21A regulates interest on deposits; §35A is RBI's directional power.
+  * **RBI Master Direction — Know Your Customer (KYC) Direction, 2016** (as amended) — defines CDD (Customer Due Diligence) for businesses.
+  * **RBI Master Circular on Branch Authorisation** (revised periodically) — governs new account opening and branch operations.
+  * **Companies Act, 2013** — §179 (powers of Board) requires a Board Resolution for opening a company account; §134 (signing of accounts).
+  * **LLP Act, 2008** — Designated Partner authorisation needed for LLP accounts.
+  * **Indian Partnership Act, 1932** — Partnership Deed is the basis for partnership account.
+  * **Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002 (PMLA)** — KYC/CDD obligations on banks for all accounts including CAs.
+A 2020 RBI circular ("Opening of current accounts by banks — Need for discipline") restricted opening of multiple CAs for the same borrower across different banks where the borrower has cash credit / overdraft facility above a threshold — this rule was significantly relaxed in subsequent updates but the discipline still applies (see "Common reasons" below).
+===== Account-type map — pick the right product =====
+==== Basic Current Account ====
+  * Lowest MAB tier — typically **₹5,000 to ₹25,000** (urban / semi-urban / rural variants).

+    * Utility bill / lease deed in the firm's name.
+  * **Initial deposit:** ₹0 to ₹10,000 typical.
+==== Partnership Firm ====
+  * **Partnership Deed** — original (or notarised true copy). Registration with the Registrar of Firms is **not** mandatory for a CA but recommended.
+  * **PAN of the firm** (separate from partners' PANs).
+  * **KYC of all partners** (PAN + Aadhaar + photo + address proof).
+  * **Registration certificate** from Registrar of Firms (if registered).
+  * **Authorisation letter** signed by all partners specifying the operating partner(s) and signing rules (any one / both jointly / any two of three).
+  * **GSTIN** (if applicable).
+  * **Initial deposit:** ₹5,000 to ₹25,000.
+==== Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) ====

+  * **LLP Agreement** (registered with MCA).
+  * **PAN of LLP**.
+  * **DIN/DPIN** of all designated partners.

+  * **Certificate of Incorporation** (CIN) from MCA.
+  * **Memorandum of Association (MOA) + Articles of Association (AOA)**.
+  * **Board Resolution** under §179 of Companies Act, 2013 — specifically authorising the bank account opening, naming the bank, listing authorised signatories, and authorising the company seal usage if any.
+  * **PAN of company**.

+  * **KYC of all directors + authorised signatories** (PAN + Aadhaar + photo).

+  * **Registered office proof** + utility bill not older than 2 months.
+  * **Specimen signatures** of all authorised signatories.
+  * **Beneficial ownership declaration** (PMLA Rule 9A) — where any beneficial owner holds ≥10% in the company, declared with KYC.
+  * **Initial deposit:** ₹25,000 to ₹1,00,000.
+==== Society / Trust / Association of Persons ====
+  * **Trust Deed / Society Registration / Bye-laws** (registered).
+  * **PAN of trust / society / AOP**.
+  * **Resolution of trustees / managing committee**.
+  * **KYC of trustees / office bearers** + photographs.
+  * **12A / 80G certificates** (if applicable, for tax exemption).
+===== Step-by-step — from walk-in to active account =====
+==== Step 1 — Decide bank, branch and product ====
+  * Compare 3-4 banks online. Look at: MAB tier, free transaction caps, monthly maintenance + breach charges, foreign-remittance fees, integration with your accounting software (Tally / Zoho / QuickBooks).
+  * For startup or new Pvt Ltd, **explicitly ask** for the startup variant (SmartUp / iStartup) — branch officers default to standard product.
+  * Choose a branch close to your office, with reasonable footfall (cash deposits + cheque clearance speed depend on branch operations).
+==== Step 2 — Pre-book a relationship manager visit ====
+  * Most banks now offer doorstep CA opening via web form: hdfcbank.com / icicibank.com / sbi.co.in → "Open Current Account" → fill the lead form → an RM calls within 24-48 hours.
+  * RMs can pre-validate your document set, saving a wasted branch visit.
+==== Step 3 — Assemble documents (entity-specific, see above) ====
+  * Originals + at least 2 self-attested photocopies of each.
+  * Photographs of all authorised signatories.
+  * Initial deposit cheque (drawn on the proprietor / company existing account) or cash (within RBI-permitted limits).
+==== Step 4 — Submit Account Opening Form (AOF) ====
+  * The bank's AOF is entity-specific (separate forms for Proprietor / Partnership / LLP / Pvt Ltd).
+  * Fill carefully — name as per PAN, address as per registered office, product code (basic / premium / startup) clearly marked.
+  * Beneficial Owner declaration (Form CDD-BO).
+  * FATCA / CRS declaration.
+==== Step 5 — Bank verification ====
+  * **Branch visit** to the registered office address — for Pvt Ltd / LLP / partnership, the bank's officer (or a panel agency) physically verifies the office.
+  * **Video KYC** — for proprietors, increasingly available end-to-end digital (Yes Bank, Federal, Kotak 811 Business, RBL).
+  * **Document verification** — bank validates Certificate of Incorporation against MCA21, GSTIN against GST portal, PAN against IT database.
+==== Step 6 — Account number generation + welcome kit ====
+  * Account number is generated in the core banking system within 1-3 days of complete documentation.
+  * **Welcome kit** dispatched: cheque book (typically 50 leaves), Business Debit Card, net banking credentials envelope, MAB schedule.
+  * **Time:** total **5-15 working days** for most cases; faster for startup variants of private banks; slower for PSU banks if registered office verification takes time.
+==== Step 7 — Activate net banking + corporate cheque protocols ====
+  * Reset the net banking password on first login.
+  * Set up payee approvals (maker-checker workflow for Pvt Ltd / LLP).
+  * Enable IMPS, RTGS, NEFT.
+  * Order MICR account-payee cheque book if the welcome kit's default doesn't match your need.
+==== Step 8 — Update GST portal, vendor masters, payroll, GeM ====
+  * Update bank account on **GST portal** under "Amend Non-Core Fields" → for refund credit.
+  * Update vendor master with all your suppliers.
+  * Update payroll software (employee bank credit run will use this account).
+  * Add account to **GeM (gem.gov.in)** under "Banking Details".
+  * Update PAN-Aadhaar-bank linkage on the **Income Tax e-filing portal** if this will be the primary account for any income.

+===== Common reasons your CA opening gets stuck =====
+  * **Certificate of Incorporation not yet downloaded.** MCA portal is glitchy at times — re-download from mca.gov.in → Master Data → CIN search → Download CoI.
+  * **Partnership Deed unstamped or insufficiently stamped.** State-specific stamp duty applies. Get adjudication from the Stamp Office before submitting.
+  * **Rent agreement < 11 months / unregistered.** Banks require a 11-month minimum registered rent agreement for office address proof. If your landlord refuses to register, get a notarised lease + electricity bill in firm's name.
+  * **Multiple signatories not all KYC-compliant.** One director's Aadhaar address differs from PAN — fix on UIDAI portal, then re-submit.
+  * **GSTIN not active** or under suspension. Reactivate on GST portal first.
+  * **Beneficial owner declaration missing** for any individual / entity holding ≥10%. PMLA mandate.
+  * **Existing CA at another branch of same bank** — RBI's "current account discipline" framework lets banks open additional CAs but with notification to the lending bank if there's a CC/OD facility above threshold. Disclose all existing accounts.
+  * **Board Resolution not in correct format.** Most banks have a template — use it verbatim. Free-form resolutions get rejected.
+  * **DIN of any director marked as "Disqualified"** — check on MCA21. A disqualified director cannot sign for the company.
+  * **Specimen signatures inconsistent** with PAN-database signatures. Banks have started cross-verifying.
+  * **Initial deposit cheque bounces** or is from an unrelated party. Use a cheque from the proprietor / company's existing account, or cash within limits.
+  * **Annual ROC filing default** for Pvt Ltd / LLP — banks pull MCA compliance status before opening; outstanding AOC-4 / MGT-7 / Form 11 will block.
+===== If stuck — the escalation ladder =====
+==== Rung 1 — Branch manager + written complaint ====
+  * Submit a written complaint at the branch with date, AOF reference, names of officers spoken to, and the specific blocker.
+  * Get an **acknowledgement number** within 24 hours under RBI Internal Ombudsman rules.
+==== Rung 2 — Bank's Principal Nodal Officer ====
+  * Each bank publishes a **Principal Nodal Officer** with name + email + phone for grievance redressal. Find on the bank's grievance page.
+  * **30-day SLA**.
+==== Rung 3 — RBI Banking Ombudsman (RBIOS) ====
+  * **RBI Integrated Ombudsman Scheme 2021** — covers all scheduled commercial banks.
+  * File at **https://cms.rbi.org.in**.
+  * Helpline: **14448**.
+  * No fee. Award binding on the bank up to ₹30 lakh.
+  * Pre-condition: written complaint to bank first + 30 days elapsed without resolution.
+==== Rung 4 — RBI Customer Service / Department of Regulation ====
+  * For systemic complaints (e.g., a bank consistently refusing to open CAs for a specific entity type) — file with RBI's Department of Regulation through CMS.
+==== Rung 5 — CPGRAMS ====
+  * https://pgportal.gov.in → "Department of Financial Services" or "Reserve Bank of India".
+  * Higher visibility.
+==== Rung 6 — Right to Information (RTI) ====
+This is where the public-vs-private distinction matters.
+**RTI helps here when:**
+  * Your CA application is at a **PSU bank** (SBI, BoB, PNB, Canara, Union, BoI, Indian Bank, Central Bank, etc.) — public authorities under §2(h) RTI Act 2005. Ask the PIO of the relevant Circle / Zonal office for: status of your AOF, dealing officer name + designation, internal note recording the reason for delay or rejection, audit trail of KYC pulls, branch verification report.
+  * RTI to **PIO Reserve Bank of India** for: bank-wise CA opening grievance statistics, regulatory clarifications on a specific RBI Master Direction provision.
+  * RTI to **PIO MCA** for delays in your CIN / company status update (which the bank is dependent on).
+**RTI does NOT help here when:**
+  * Your CA application is at a **private bank** (HDFC, ICICI, Axis, Kotak, IndusInd, RBL, Yes, Federal, Bandhan, etc.). These are **not "public authorities"** under §2(h) RTI Act and the Supreme Court has consistently held so. PIOs cannot compel them.
+  * For private banks, the binding route is **RBIOS** at https://cms.rbi.org.in — that order **is** binding on them (with appeal to RBI).
+  * For NBFCs offering CA-like products (Razorpay X, Open, Karbon — fintechs that operate via partner banks): file with the partner bank's Internal Ombudsman / RBIOS.
+  * For interpretation ("is this MAB charge fair?") — opinion, not record. Use Ombudsman.
+  * For pre-emptive ("the account is not yet rejected, I want internal notes") — fishing; PIOs refuse under §8(1)(j) RTI Act.

+===== FAQs =====
+**Q. Can I open a Current Account online, end-to-end, without visiting a branch?**\\
+For **proprietors**, yes — Yes Bank, Federal Onesource, Kotak 811 Business, RBL, IndusInd offer Video KYC end-to-end. For **Pvt Ltd / LLP / partnership**, most banks still require an in-person verification visit by a panel agency; the application can be initiated online but a verification visit is mandated.
+**Q. How many Current Accounts can a single business have?**\\
+No legal cap, but RBI's **"Current Accounts Discipline" framework** (originally August 2020, revised subsequently) requires that a borrower with a Cash Credit / Overdraft above a threshold (₹50 crore aggregate banking exposure last benchmark) maintain its CA only with the lending bank or in an escrow-compliant arrangement. For most small businesses, you can hold multiple CAs across banks freely — disclose all of them in each AOF.
+**Q. Is GSTIN mandatory to open a Current Account?**\\
+**No** — GST is required only if your turnover is above the GST threshold (₹40 lakh / ₹20 lakh / ₹10 lakh depending on state and supply type). Below the threshold, you can open a CA with **Udyam + Shop Act + ITR** as business proof. See [[:apply-gst-registration-2026|Apply GST registration]].
+**Q. What is MAB and what happens if I breach it?**\\
+**Minimum Average Balance** is the average end-of-day balance you must maintain across the calendar quarter (or month, depending on product). If you breach it, the bank levies a **breach charge** (₹100-₹750 + GST per month, product-dependent). Track the MAB requirement on Day 1 and pre-fund accordingly.
+**Q. Can I earn interest on my Current Account balance?**\\
+**No** — RBI prohibits interest on CA balances under §21A of Banking Regulation Act, 1949. To earn yield on idle CA money, set up a **Sweep-In FD** (auto-sweeps balance above a threshold into a 7-day FD).
+**Q. Why does the bank ask for both Aadhaar and PAN — isn't one enough?**\\
+**Both are required** under PMLA Rules and RBI KYC Master Direction. PAN is the financial identifier; Aadhaar is the identity / address proof (with masking, per Aadhaar Act §7 and the SC's Puttaswamy ruling on PMLA-banking use).
+**Q. The bank refused my CA application without giving any reason. Is that allowed?**\\
+**No** — RBI's Charter of Customer Rights mandates written reasons for refusal of any banking service. Insist in writing. If still refused, escalate to the bank's nodal officer → RBIOS.
+**Q. My Pvt Ltd Co's CA is at HDFC. Can I file an RTI on HDFC about my account opening delay?**\\
+**No.** HDFC is a private bank and is **not** a public authority under §2(h) RTI Act 2005. File with **HDFC's Internal Ombudsman** first; if unsatisfied, **RBIOS** at https://cms.rbi.org.in (helpline **14448**). The RBIOS award binds HDFC.
+**Q. Switched from HDFC to SBI Power Gain. How do I close the old CA?**\\
