Bank Account Nominee: There is big news for the account holders who have accounts in banks. The winter session of Parliament has started from today and on the very first day, after the uproar in Parliament over the Adani bribery controversy, it has been adjourned till 12 noon. In this session, the government will try to pass the Banking Amendment Bill to bring many changes in the banking sector in the country.

New rules for nominee for account holders soon

Now soon new rules are going to come for the account holders in the bank regarding the nominee of their account. This will happen after the Banking Amendment Bill is passed in Parliament. The government will try to pass the Banking Amendment Bill in Parliament, which is currently pending in the Lok Sabha. Earlier in August 2024, the Union Cabinet passed the Banking Bill.

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will try to get the Banking Amendment Bill passed during the winter session of Parliament. The major changes to be made in this are also important for bank accounts. Under the Banking Laws Amendment Bill 2024, there will be a proposal to increase the number of nominees for bank accounts to four. When the Banking Amendment Bill is passed on the floor of the Lok Sabha in Parliament, after that it will become mandatory for everyone to make 4 nominations in their bank account. Under this bill, there is a proposal to increase the limit of nominees on every bank account to four, which is currently one.

Know the special features of this bill

Either the bank account holder will have to decide the nominees sequentially on the basis of their priority or they can decide the share of each nominee as per the banking rules. If the account holders choose the option of nominee, then they will have to determine the name of the first, second, third and fourth nominees. After the death of the account holder, he will get the right to the account sequentially from among his four nominees. The next surviving nominee after the first, second or third nominee will get the right to the account.

By dividing the shares of the four nominees, each nominee can be given a certain share of the account amount. There will be no need for priority in this and every nominee will get a fixed share of the account amount, interest etc.

The Banking Bill passed by the Union Cabinet in August 2024 amends several laws, including-

Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934

Banking Regulation Act, 1949

State Bank of India Act, 1955

Banking Companies (Acquisition and Transfer of Undertakings) Act, 1970 and 1980
