Thread 'SBI Wealth Upgradation Under the IIT Offer 101'

Jul 20, 2024

There are already two threads on upgrading a regular SBI savings account to an SBI Wealth savings account if you are a final-year IIT student.

A gist of the two threads regarding the account upgradation procedure is: 'Walk into the in-campus/near-campus SBI branch, which has a wealth section or which is a wealth hub with an institute ID card, and fill in the account upgradation form.'

However, this hasn't been a cakewalk for some people, as expected. SBI branches inside or near some IITs are unaware of this offer. The post details what to do in this case.

Are Masters or PhD students...

Approach the Wealth branch near your IIT/IIM. You just need to fill the Wealth upgrade form to convert your existing regular savings account to Wealth. All that they ask for is your active student ID card. No TRV threshold or anything is there. Its a no-nonsense life time Wealth upgrade.

I've called multiple wealth offices but got similar responses as I've given above list.
Please tell me which IIT other than this got this facility.
And if possible tag here who got the upgrade.

IIT BHU, @rrsji posted a thread on Wealth upgrade too.

Also, I have seen the email SBI Wealth branches received. At least 10 IITs were in that list for sure.

Not necessary if you block your debit card and if you reinstall the app then you can activate txn permission in Mobile app through the branch.

you will get the activation code to your mail which you can use to register in app & netbanking. you don't need physical debit card at all.

I opened the account without selecting the debit card option. Account opened successfully but they didn't send the verification code for me neither in sms nor via email. Now it's asking me physical debit card to enter bob world. Lagta hai kat gaya bada wala.

Did you get welcome mail with attached PDF containing user id? use that to register in netbanking and from there you can register mobile banking and later apply virtual dc. Don't panic, what i told has worked for me without physical debit card, try and let me know.
