Sir/Madam,

The references have been received in this office from time to time to provide MIS/SCSS/NSC/KVP/PPF schemes in GDS Branch Post Offices. The matter has been examined in detail in the light of Rule 3 (a) of “Government Savings Promotion General Rules-2018” and the competent authority has accordingly decided to allow account opening for MIS/SCSS/KVP/NSC/PPF schemes in GDS Branch Post Offices.

2. However, the process for necessary modification in RICT CBS application/Finacle may take time. So, in order to facilitate rural customers to open account under these schemes at the GDS Branch Post Offices, the following guidelines are issued for further necessary action, till the provisions are made available in DARPAN (RICT) CBS Application/Finacle.

i) Opening of MIS/SCSS/NSC/KVP/PPF account of any amount subject to minimum/maximum limit, if any under each scheme and subsequent deposit in PPF account can be done at GDS Branch Post Offices through Cheque only (POSB Cheque/Bank Cheque).
