What are the things needed to open a bank account

To open a bank account in India, you typically need to provide the following essential documents:

• Proof of Identity: Aadhaar card, PAN card, Voter ID, Passport, or Driving License.
• Proof of Address: Aadhaar card, utility bills (electricity, water, or gas), or a recent bank statement.
• Photographs: Recent passport-sized photographs.
• PAN Card: Mandatory for most financial transactions and tax purposes.

While most savings accounts require you to be 18 years or older, minors can open accounts with a guardian's assistance. Many banks also offer online account opening via video KYC for added convenience.
