Sub: Clarification on acceptance of
WOS banknotes though Post Office Savings Bank Accounts / P O S B Schemes
Ref.- i. S
B Order No. 12 / 2016 (Dte.’s
letter No. 116 – 11 / 2016 – SB, dated 08.11.2016)
ii. Dte.’s
letter No. 116 – 11 /
2016 – SB, dated 09.11.2016
iii. C O eMail
dated 10.11.2016
Sir,
After going through the above orders
on the captioned subject, a lots of confusions are arising as follows.
i.
The
introductory Para of S B Order No. 12 / 2016 circulated vide Dte.’s letter No.
116 – 11 / 2016 – SB, dated 08.11.2016 specifies deposits of WOS bank notes in
Savings Accounts from 10th November to 30th December,
2016 and the same has been specified under Para 2 ( i ) of the said order.
ii.
While
no specific guideline has been issued in S B Order No. 12 / 2016 for accepting
cash under any other POSB Scheme, Dte.’s letter No.
116 – 11 / 2016 – SB, dated 09.11.2016 specifies as follows:
a. Para -1 states that if KYC is not
given by the depositor in any of the already opened accounts under any of the
POSB Schemes, the amount can be deposited up to Rs.50000/- and if KYC already
given, there is no limit on quantity or
value of the specified banknotes (WOS) to deposit in the account up to 30th
December, 2016.
b. Para 2 states that since MPKBY Agents
are supposed to deposit amounts collected the same day, the contingency of
these tendering Rs.500 / 1000 after 10th November, 2016 does not
arise.
iii.
But
Circle Office eMail dated 10.11.2016 clarifies that deposits (WOS bank notes)
from MPKBY agents can be accepted up 30-12-2016 which contradicts
the instructions of the Directorate issued vide Para – 2 of letter No. 116 – 11 / 2016 – SB, dated 09.11.2016 reproduced above
under Para – ii (b).
iv.
Secondly,
the clarification issued under Para – 1 of letter No.
116 – 11 / 2016 – SB, dated 09.11.2016 ( reproduced above under Para – ii (a) creates
confusion as to whether WOS banknotes can be accepted under any other POSB
Scheme or will be confined to PO Savings Bank Accounts only as specified in S B
Order No. 12 / 2016 circulated vide Dte.’s letter No. 116 – 11 / 2016 – SB,
dated 08.11.2016
Thus, it is requested to
kindly arrange issuance of necessary clarification for smooth implementation
of SB Order No. 12 / 2016 without any
confusion.
With regards
Yours faithfully,
