The main aim for the charges is twofold:-

02)  To bring in further efficiency in the operations and the liquidity flows in the RTGS system.

The second one is more important, and the various participants in the RTGS cycle i.e Remitting Banks, Remitting customers, Beneficiary Banks, Beneficiary Banks will take some time to adapt to.

The charges comprise of 3 components,
(i)                 Membership fee,
(ii)               Transaction fee and

Yes, you have read it right, time-varying tariff. Time-varying tariff is common across other service industries, but this is the first of its kind in the banking industry.
