Best bank account for parking some fund

[napster003]

I wanted to open a new account for my father my options are IDFC, Indusind and RBL
The netbanking and mobile banking should be smooth
Will just use account for ipo purpose
And good interest rate would be nice
Was going to open induind but many people faced account freeze issue there.

According to your purpose, I will suggest going with the Kotak.

ActiveMoney will give you 7%+ interest

Easy IPO application from the Mobile App.

It will not break your FD for the IPO ASBA.

OR

RBL, not sure about the IPO application on the FD amount, but IPO from the App is possible.

But kotak is not opening new accounts right now
If it is can you please suggest account variant ?

You will face freezing issue with IDFC but it's mobile banking and NetBanking is smooth.

I would also suggest Kotak. You can open account offline but will have to maintain balance. Choose account according to balance you can maintain.

Why would IDFC freeze any account? I keep crores in their savings and transfer similar amounts without any issues ever.

Oops, my bad.
In that case, branch people will visit the home and open the account. OP's concern of not leaving the house will be taken care

It must have been for some prohibited or suspicious transactions. I have more than 15 accounts and have never faced any such issue. Nor have I ever heard it from any friend or acquaintances. I have only read about it online.
