Quick Summary

What is NACH and Why Does Money Get Deducted?

NACH (National Automated Clearing House) is RBI's system for automated recurring payments. When you sign up for EMI, insurance premium, SIP, OTT subscription or utility payment auto-pay, you give a NACH mandate. The company can then deduct money from your account on due dates without your approval each time.

How to Stop NACH Auto Debit โ€” Online Methods

Method 1 โ€” Through Bank Net Banking

Method 2 โ€” Visit Branch

Important: Give 30 days advance notice before cancelling a mandate. If you cancel abruptly, the next debit may still go through and you may face failed payment charges from the company. Also inform the company (lender, insurer, etc.) after cancelling so they can arrange alternate payment method.

How to Get Refund for Unauthorised NACH Debit

Frequently Asked Questions

Log into your bank's net banking or mobile app and look for Mandate Management or NACH/SI section. You can view all active mandates and cancel any of them online. Give 30 days notice to avoid failed payment charges. Also inform the company whose mandate you're cancelling so they can arrange alternate payment. If online cancellation isn't available, visit your home branch with ID proof.
Yes. Report the unauthorised deduction to your bank immediately โ€” file a written complaint within 30 days. Under RBI guidelines, if NACH deduction was truly unauthorised (you never gave the mandate or it was already revoked), the bank must refund within 7 working days. If bank doesn't cooperate, file complaint at NPCI grievance portal or RBI CMS portal.
If NACH mandate is not properly cancelled, the company can continue to debit your account on due dates. Even if your account has insufficient funds, failed NACH attempts incur Rs 200-500 penalty per attempt from your bank. Always cancel mandates through the official bank channel and get written confirmation. Keep the cancellation acknowledgement for future disputes.
