Latest underlying reviewSeptember 10, 2026
HDFC BankHDFC Bank Transfers — NEFT, RTGS & IMPS

HDFC customers who use NetBanking/MobileBanking and need to understand why a ₹50 lakh TPT ceiling does not mean the same amount, timing or beneficiary state for NEFT, RTGS and IMPS.

Cost / pricing
Online NEFT and RTGS are free for the reviewed eligible retail categories. Branch NEFT charges effective 1 August 2025 run ₹2/₹4/₹14/₹24 by amount slab plus GST; branch RTGS is ₹20 for ₹2–5 lakh and ₹45 above ₹5 lakh plus GST. IMPS pricing should be checked on the current HDFC schedule.

Wrong-fit risks

Keep each product’s cautions beside the product.

A useful comparison shows what can make either option unsuitable instead of averaging those conditions into a score.

HDFC Bank

HDFC Bank Transfers — NEFT, RTGS & IMPS

  • A newly added other-bank beneficiary takes about 30 minutes to activate and is limited to ₹50,000 total in the first 24 hours for applicable transfers; HDFC's RTGS page separately says RTGS is possible only after 24 hours of beneficiary addition.
  • NEFT is 24x7, but HDFC applies a ₹2 lakh per-transaction limit outside 7 AM–7 PM on working days and on holidays even when the customer's TPT limit is higher.
  • HDFC's RTGS page states 24x7 availability except an 11:30 PM–12:30 AM bank cut-off window, which is a channel implementation detail rather than an RBI RTGS-system limitation.
Bank of Baroda

Bank of Baroda Transfers — NEFT, RTGS & IMPS

  • New IMPS/NEFT beneficiaries have a four-hour cooling period, while RTGS beneficiaries have a 24-hour cooling period in the current bob World FAQ.
  • Bank of Baroda's mobile and web limits differ materially: a ₹2 lakh mobile RTGS transaction maximum is not the same as the current ₹10 lakh Internet Banking transaction maximum.
  • Service charges can be waived by specific account propositions; the generic service-charge schedule is not used to remove a documented account-specific waiver.
