The State Bank of India will limit cash withdrawals from ATMs to Rs 20,000 per day for certain cardholders from October 31. The limit will be applicable on both Classic and Maestro variants of SBI debit cards. Customers wanting to withdraw more can apply for a higher variant card. "Daily cash withdrawal limit for Classic and Maestro debit cards has been reduced from Rs 40,000 to Rs 20,000 per day with effect from October 31. If you require higher daily cash withdrawal limit, please apply for a higher card variant," SBI said on its official website.

The largest commercial lender in the country has limited cash withdrawal in a bid to protect customers from fraudulent cash withdrawals from ATMs and also to spur more digital transactions. "We analysed all the ATM transactions and we found that most of them are less than Rs 20,000 a day. In the case of frauds reported to us, we found that in all such cases withdrawals of Rs 40,000 (the maximum) have happened. So this is basically to protect the customers and secondly, we want that more such (digital) transactions should happen," SBI Managing Director PK Gupta told PTI.

While classic and maestro debit card users of SBI will be able to withdraw just Rs 20,000, the withdrawal limit is different for other prominent banks. Take a look:
