IndusInd Savings Account Shortcut Ends 1 Oct — Only Balances Will Count

From 1 October 2026, IndusInd is tightening Savings Account / programme eligibility.

What’s changing

  • Credit cards, insurance, mutual funds, demat and loans will no longer count as surrogate relationships.

  • Only actual bank money will count: Savings / Current balances and FDs.

  • Reported remaining criteria for Exclusive-type programmes: ~₹1L SA (single/group) or ₹10L CASA+FD.

What to do

  • Existing customers may keep current waivers — confirm with the bank.

  • If you opened or maintained the account only via a card/insurance surrogate, review whether the relationship still makes sense after 1 Oct.

Devaluation is hitting relationship banking, not just cards.
