What is needed to open a bank account

To open a bank account in India, you need to provide officially valid documents for identity and address verification as part of the Know Your Customer (KYC) process. The essential requirements typically include:

• Proof of Identity: Aadhaar card, PAN card, Passport, Voter ID, or Driving License.
• Proof of Address: Aadhaar card, utility bills (electricity, water, or gas) not older than two months, or a property tax receipt.
• Recent passport-sized photographs.
• An initial deposit amount as specified by the bank's minimum balance requirements.
