Automated Fraud Detection Tool

It is worth noting that from January 1, 2021, the new Positive Pay System has been implemented for Cheques in the country. Positive Pay System is an automated fraud detection tool. RBI said that the purpose behind the implementation of this rule is to tighten the noose on the misuse of cheques. The bank has sent SMS to the customers for this. In an SMS sent to customers, Axis Bank said, “From September 1, 2021, Cheques of Rs 5 lakh or more will be returned, if you do not provide positive pay details before one working day from the Cheque clearing date.”

What is Positive Pay System?

Positive Pay System is to provide protection against fraud in clearing of Cheques under Cheque truncation system. Cheque Truncation System is a process of clearing cheques. This makes the process of collection of Cheques faster. National Payment Corporation of India (NPCI) is providing positive pay facility in Cheque Truncation System (CTS) to banks. This system will be applicable on payment through Cheque of 50 thousand or more amount.

How does Positive Pay System work?


Through this system, Cheque information can be given through SMS, mobile app, internet banking and ATM. These details will be re-verified before making payment of the cheque. If any discrepancy is found in it, the bank will reject that Cheque. Here if there is a case of two banks i.e. the bank whose Cheque has been deducted and the bank in which the Cheque has been inserted, then both will be informed about this.
