flag The Reserve Bank of India is urging banks to reduce consumer fees on products like debit cards, minimum balance charges, and late payments, particularly those affecting low-income customers. flag While no specific fee ranges have been set, the central bank is pushing for standardization across over 100 retail banking products amid a growing retail lending market. flag The move follows a rebound in fee income, up 12% in the June quarter, and comes as banks expand into personal loans, auto financing, and small business lending. flag The Indian Banks’ Association is also involved in discussions on these changes.
