After transferring my savings from HDFC Bank to my ICICI Bank account, I had to change the bank mandate of all the investments I had made so the dividend, if any was directly credited to my new account.

ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteCan u please tell me how much time does it usually take for the bank mandate to be changed? Coz I need to change it for this month itself in which the due date falls. Do the companies accept cheque for the first ECS when bank mandate is changed?
Hope you will be reply to me ASAP.

Yep, but who is your service provider is the fact that determines your fate. I have seen CAMS to be efficient in handling such changes to banks in time (say 4 days from receipt at their side). Others may sleep on it a bit late. Who are you with.
ReplyDeleteThanks

Now I wish to change the bank mandate to HDFC Bank. Apparently, CAMS refused to do so, Citibank is asking for too much info and I am not in India.
Can someone help plzz !!
