How Do I Write a Letter for HDFC Bank to Keep My Salary Account with a New Job?

Hello,

I have recently changed my job. I have a salary account in HDFC Bank from my previous company, and I want to continue with the same salary account in my new company. I obtained a letter of introduction from my previous company to continue with the existing salary account. However, HDFC Bank is requesting a letter stating the company code mapping for the salary account. Could anyone help me with the format of the letter?

Thank you.

Greetings,

Please comply with what the ban is asking for. In case you don't, your account would remain active, but converted into a personal account after 3 months. It doesn't make much of a difference. It's just that zero balance is allowed on a Salaried Account. The rest remains the same.

The Finance team with your new employer will be able to share the Company Code. Unless HDFC bank updates it in your account details, it will remain a Personal Bank Account for you.

Hi,

It is not required to get any letter from the previous company. They can check the same, and even if it's not matching the code as a salary account, they can convert it now. Even we have salary accounts with HDFC Bank, and we never get any letters from the previous company. Bankers are managing themselves. Even if they are not managing, ask your HR personnel to consider your existing HDFC account number for salaries.

Hopefully, you have not taken any advance salary or loan from your company. You just need to provide the account number to your current company, and they will map it in your accounts and transfer the salary. It doesn't matter if it's personal or savings. You don't need to talk to the bank; just follow what your company instructs. It's a matter for the HR and accounts departments of your current company and not a significant issue.

Good luck :)

No need. As long as the salary is being deposited every month, it will remain as a Salary account regardless of the company you work for.

Thanks, all.

Currently, my new company is depositing my salary into this account only. However, this account is still mapped to my previous employer's company code. Will this have any effect in any way?
