This changed my mind. Already EPF hai na bhai.[DOUBLEPOST=1500463421][/DOUBLEPOST]Today something miraculous thing happened. My frnd closed the account in 15mins.

Like i said earlier all new young staff.

SBI was begging so he gave them ₹590 for closing the SB account. (New rules from 01-04-17)

well the ppf still makes a lot of good sense to me
starting now might be stupid but no harm in still doing that for a guaranteed return

Isn't it easier to withdraw everything in the account and forget about it. Over a period of time, it will be deemed dormant and then closed due to inactivity, right?

Wrong it may show up on your credit and damage your scores.[DOUBLEPOST=1508148512][/DOUBLEPOST]It is just a general advice I give to all to not to close their SBI accounts.

CIBIL scores are based solely on credit related transactions (credit cards or loans availed). Bank account balances cannot and will not reflect on credit scores.

But are they transparent enough to tell us that their formula does not take into account the outstanding amount of banks?

Also banks don't look at the CIBIL score only. They pull the full credit history. If the outstanding amount in the bank appears there, what will we do? It may not affect the score but if it appears in the history, then it is the same thing.
