ICICI mine is an online account i want to apply for physical account in the branch and in kotak there is fd of 10k .
Kotak 811 was zero balance, there was no fd thing.

However, I do suggest going for IDFC 10k or Axis 10k account, they are very good options, especially IDFC since everything is free for that account, including debit card. I personally recently shifted my account from axis 10k to IDFC one.

1k is too less, in that range you might be restricted by what options you get, try BOB, SBI like banks if kotak 811 does not satisfy you.

I have Canara and PNB, they are 'good'.
My parents have their accounts in PNB. Recently from Jan 14/15 this year, PNB is asking to maintain ₹5000 in urban and metro accounts. PNB's mobile banking app is also unreliable in its current state. But my parents are satisfied with the branch service as the staff knows them and resolves their issues quickly. They even changed the mobile no. mapped to my mother's account on just a phone call. Though I find it a risky thing to do.

ICICI Mine is just like a regular account, but with 0 balance. You can do your things offline too. I have that account and use it a lot for cash deposits at branch. You will be allotted your home branch based on the PIN Code you enter in the ICICI Mine application. The biggest downside of this account is the opening process and KYC process. My video KYC failed when I tried to open the account. On visiting the branch, the staff was constantly trying to persuade me to shift to 10k maintenance account and delaying the bio-metric KYC process. But in the end, I completed my KYC and now, using the account without any charges. I have not even been charged annual debit card fee or SMS fee even after 1.5 years of account usage.

What is the maximum amount you can deposit in this account? And in 1 month how many times you can do cash deposit at branch?
