Crystallisation of foreign currency deposits: bank converts inoperative accounts to Indian Rupee; depositor may claim Rupee proceeds or foreign currency equivalent. For fixed-maturity foreign currency deposits remaining inoperative for the prescribed period, the authorised bank converts the balance into Indian Rupee at the prevailing exchange rate on conversion; the depositor may claim either the Rupee proceeds with interest or the foreign currency equivalent of those Rupee proceeds and interest at the payment-date rate. For non-maturing foreign currency deposits remaining inoperative for the prescribed period (excluding bank charge debits as operations), the authorised bank, after issuing a notice to the depositor and upon expiry of the notice period, converts the deposit into Indian Rupee at the prevailing rate, with the same claimant entitlements.
