Two types of accounts are opened in a bank, savings account and current account. Savings account is used for personal needs, interest is also received on depositing money in savings account. On the other hand, current account is opened to fulfill the financial need of business, there is no limit on making transactions in current account, overdraft facility is also available. No interest is paid on keeping money in current account.
In most of the banks, to manage current account, a balance of Rs. 5 thousand to Rs. 5 lakh has to be maintained. For example, to open a current account in HDFC bank, you have to maintain Rs. 25 to 50 thousand. But AU bank is one such bank in which you can open zero balance current account without maintaining any balance.
