New Delhi, Jan 23 (SocialNews.XYZ) The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Monday extended the deadline for renewal of locker agreements between customers and banks till December 31, 2023.

Now the banks have been directed by the RBI to complete the process in a phased manner by December 31, 2023.
However, banks have been asked to meet the intermediate milestones of 50 per cent by June 30, 2023, and 75 per cent by September 30, 2023.
