August 27, 2022
Synopsis
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has implemented Positive Pay System (PPS) for all types of cheque payments in order to prevent frauds carried out through the tampering or alteration of cheques.
In order to prevent frauds committed through the tampering or alteration of cheques, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has implemented Positive Pay System (PPS) for all modes of cheque payments.
In the Positive Pay System, the drawer of the cheque reconfirms the cheque's essential details to the bank, which the bank then compares to the presented check when processing the payment.
State Bank of India (SBI) customers who wish to use the service must first register their cheque-operated accounts for the Positive Pay System through one of our branches by submitting an application in the prescribed format.
There are additional channels available for registration, including Mobile Banking (YonoLite), Retail Internet Banking (RINB), Corporate Internet Banking (CINB), and YONO (Mobile App).
According to the SBI website, “ Customers need to select an account level limit for registration. This can be any amount depending on customers’ risk perception. However, Bank is planning to make Positive Pay System mandatory for Savings Bank account cheques of Rs.5 lakhs & above and all other account type (Current Account/Cash Credit/Overdraft) cheques of Rs.10 lakhs & above. As such, once the mandatory clauses are made effective, maximum account level limits which can be selected would be the amounts mentioned above. All the registrations already made above the mandatory limits would be brought down to the mandatory level on the effective date.”
