What Is The PNB RTGS Form?

Real-time Gross Settlement, or RTGS, is a payment method through which banks send money from one account to another of an RTGS-enabled bank. RTGS allows for immediate settlements of high-value transactions, usually above Rs. 2 lakh, ensuring secure and quick transactions. 

RTGS utilises a continuous and real-time settlement system, where each transaction is settled as soon as the instruction is received individually. It is an ideal transfer method for expensive transactions that you need to settle immediately. Transactions are settled within 2 hours, and the payment details are quickly updated for beneficiaries. 

Punjab National Bank offers the RTGS payment method online and offline. You can transfer funds via RTGS using PNB net banking or mobile banking or by submitting a PNB RTGS form at a bank branch. This lets you transfer large sums of money without any hassles.
