Bank Lockers

Banks are issuing new locker agreements to holders. As mandated by the RBI, a bank is not liable to compensate a locker holder for loss on account of natural calamities or an act of God. However, it is liable if a loss occurs due to incidents like fire, theft, dacoity, building collapse, or employee fraud.
