|

Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) is a process of settlement where the amounts are credited on a real time basis.

Unlike the National Electronic Fund Transfer (NEFT) where the amount to be credited takes time, in this mechanism the amounts are settled in real time.

In fact, the NEFT is basically a deferred way of settling your transaction, as the same is done in batches, wherein under RTGS it is done on a real time basis.

 

However, it maybe possible that there is some delay in crediting the accounts by the bank.

According to the Reserve Bank of India the amounts have to be credited with 30 minutes of receiving the same.
