Is Positive Pay System mandatory for all cheques? ▾
Positive Pay is highly recommended by RBI for cheques of ₹50,000/- and above. While it is optional at the discretion of the account holder for ₹50,000 to ₹5,00,000, confirmation is mandatory for cheques of ₹5,00,000/- and above.

You should submit cheque details at least 24 hours prior to the cheque being presented by the payee's bank in CTS clearing. In case of offline submission, please submit before 3:00 PM on working days.
What happens if details are not submitted or do not match? ▾
If the cheque details are not pre-submitted, or if there is any mismatch in amount, cheque number, or date during CTS clearing, the cheque may be returned unpaid with the clearing reason code to safeguard your account from unauthorized withdrawal.
Are there any charges for using the Positive Pay System? ▾
