To avail of an ECS mandate, you need to inform your bank first. The ECS mandate contains details of your bank account and branch, among others. An ECS user can set a limit for the maximum amount that can be debited from their account.

ECS is an electronic mode to transfer funds from one bank account to another. The customer needs to provide a mandate that authorises the institution, such as Bajaj Finserv, to debit or credit payments to the bank account.
The charges for ECS may vary for different financial institutions.
The ECS mandate requires details like your name, account number and your bank’s name. Based on this information, the financial institution accepting the ECS payments prepares the data and submits it to the clearing house through its bank. After validating the data, the ECS is processed and the amount is debited from the bank.
