Hi Mam, Thanks for the response; as a matter of practice I am still using thumb impression till I do not obtain comfort and a predictable result with my signature, which I am still practicing. And that is where the problem is coming from.
Previously they sighted legal issues, which I could easily take care of due to the circulars and legal provisions of laws, but now here is another angle of Risk Management. Due to the absense of biometric devices, they are not happy to process it sighting this angle. I have spoken with RBI (Department of Banking Operations and Development) which issued the circular, and their view is that absense of biometric devices cannot be the reason to deny this facility to you. So if that ground is put forward by them, it is open to challenge. Based on my discussions and email communications I understand that in U.S. and other jurisdictions people either use signature or draw a letter in presence of a witness. Regards, -- Amar Jain.
