Kolkata, July 12 (IBNS): Kotak Mahindra Bank (Kotak) on Thursday announced the launch of instant current account opening for individuals through biometric mode and a scan-based process for sole proprietorship accounts. 

The Aadhaar-based biometric account opening process enables instant opening and activation of a current account for self-employed professionals and non-professionals.

Sole proprietorship businesses can open a current account with Kotak through a scan-based process that reduces the turnaround time to open a current account from six to seven days earlier to just one day.

Puneet Kapoor, Sr. Executive Vice President, Kotak Mahindra Bank said, “Our constant effort is to make banking quicker, simpler and more convenient for our customers. We pioneered India’s first downloadable instant digital bank account – ‘811’, in March 2017.  The biometric and scan-based process will now offer the benefits of a hassle-free and instant account opening experience to individual and sole proprietorship companies seeking to open current accounts.”

“Self-employed individuals and owners of sole proprietorships can now enjoy easy access to a range of banking services tailored for their businesses,” Kapoor added.
