RTGS is a gross settlement in which both processing and final settlement of funds transfer instructions take place continuously i.e. in real time and transfers are settled individually against the present clearing system.

The Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) System was introduced by the Reserve Bank of India in 1995 for quick movement of funds between different Banks for the Bank Customers. The scheme is available for transfer of funds across the Banks. At present  Reserve Bank of India manages the Clearing Houses in 15 centres  namely Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Bhubaneshwar, Chandigarh, Chennai, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Kanpur, Kolkata, Mumbai, Nagpur, New Delhi, Thiruvananthapuram and Patna.

The EFT system works on the principle of "NEXT DAY AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS" i.e. the beneficiary gets the funds credited to his account on the very next day, within 24 hours. This is a big boon to customer service since under the paper - based cheque payment system, a customer depositing an outstation cheque for collection receives credit to his account after 1-2 weeks time, depending upon the destination.

It is hoped that the enhancement in the limit of amount of individual transactions under the EFT Scheme would be beneficial for the banks' customers and will go a long way in improving customer service in the banks.
