There is going to be a change in the schemes running in the post office. This change will be applicable from April 1 because, the new rules of some of the post office schemes are changing.
In the rules that will come into effect from April 1, customers will now have to have time deposit account. To invest in Senior Citizen Savings Scheme and Monthly Income Scheme, you have to open a savings account or bank account.
