What is an Electronic Bank Guarantee (eBG) from Karnataka Bank?

An Electronic Bank Guarantee (eBG) from Karnataka Bank is a digitally issued bank guarantee that ensures fast, secure, and paperless processing. It provides businesses with assurance that their contractual obligations will be met, with the guarantee issued and managed entirely through a digital platform, in partnership with NeSL.

Karnataka Bank s eBG offers numerous benefits, including faster processing, reduced paperwork, enhanced security with digital signatures, and real-time tracking. This ensures your business can secure contracts and fulfill obligations quickly and efficiently, minimizing the risk of fraud and errors.

Unlike traditional bank guarantees that require physical documentation, an eBG is issued and managed electronically. This eliminates the need for physical visits to the bank, reduces processing time, and provides enhanced security through the use of blockchain technology and digital signatures

The National E Governance Services Ltd. (NeSL) plays a crucial role in the issuance of eBGs by providing the digital infrastructure for secure, realtime issuance, verification, and storage. NeSLs platform ensures that Karnataka Bank s eBGs are compliant, tamper-proof, and easily trackable

To apply for an eBG, you can visit your nearest Karnataka Bank branch or contact your relationship manager. The application process is streamlined through Karnataka Bank s digital platform, and once approved, the eBG is issued electronically via NeSL, allowing for quick and secure processing.

If you have lost your debit or credit card, or if it has been stolen, you should immediately report the incident to Karnataka Bank to ensure your account's security. You can send an email to info@ktkbank.com detailing the situation. Alternatively, you can call our toll-free customer numbers at 1800 425 1444 or 1800 572 8031. Prompt reporting is crucial to prevent any unauthorized transactions and to secure your account.

The rates and charges for electronic bank guarantees from Karnataka Bank are as follows:
1. Performance guarantee: ₹200 + 2.5% p.a. or part thereof
2. Other than performance guarantee: ₹200 + 3% p.a. or part thereof
3. Bank guarantees fully secured by deposits: ₹500 + 20% of normal charge with a min of ₹250 and max of ₹1 lakh
