A Physical Mandate is a traditional paper-based authorization method that requires only the customer’s physical signature and bank account details for authorization to the Bank/Corporations/Financial Institution to deduct EMI from their account at regular intervals for repayment of their loan(s). This method is often used for offline or paper-based requests.
An e-Mandate is a more modern and efficient method of authorizing recurring payments. It is a digital authorization that allows automatic deductions from a customer’s account, enabling quick and secure processing of payments. The Customer may authenticate e-mandates through multiple methods, such as net banking, debit card, or Aadhaar verification.
