When I registered my name in a Diagnostic Centre to have some blood tests like WBC Total & Differential Count, ESR and Serum Uric Acid as per the advice of my Orthopaedician for treatment of Hyperuricemia, immediately, I received a message in my mobile “Thank you for using services of …... You would receive an SMS once the report is ready. To view it, log on to …… ID: …. Pass Word: ……”  When the report became ready with the joint signature of a pathologist and microbiologist exactly by the time given to me, I got another message, “Dear Customer, Your report is ready for accession. Login to ….. for viewing reports”. All on a sudden, I could be able to download my reports without proceeding to the Diagnostic Centre in person. However, after consultation with my doctor, when I attended the Diagnostic Centre to thank them for timely intimation and delivery, I witnessed heavy rush of customers in the said centre as if it has been  trusted by millions.

 The particular Diagnostic Centre I attended is a Private Limited Company having few branches preferably spreading over the capital and metro cities in India. Being surprised with the promptness of such a small company, I asked myself - Has India Post having the record to its credit as the largest postal network in the world with 154822 outlets as on date been able to show its promptness, effectiveness and commitment in service delivery to its customers? Immediately, I started doing Mathematics on India Post.

''Post Offices have been successful as payment banks'' : RBI Director

MUMBAI:  RBI director Nachiket Mor has said that world over post offices have been successful as "payment banks". IndiaPost is an applicant for a banking licence and a panel headed by Mor on financial inclusion has recommended creation of specialized "payment banks" which can open accounts, cash cheques and remit funds without engaging in lending.

Speaking on the sidelines of ET Edge's Financial Inclusion Summit 2014, Mor said that world over there are many successful payment banks. "In South Korea, for example, the post office bank is a payment bank. How does this become viable? It becomes viable on transactions, it does not make money on deposits," said Mor. On IndiaPost's application seeking a bank licence from the RBI, Mor said: "I don't want to speak specifically about India Post itself, what I'm saying is worldwide post offices have been very effective as payments banks."

India Post to install 3000 ATMs,1.35 lakh mirco-ATMs by Sept 15

We will be starting with three ATMs to be installed in New Delhi, Chennai and Bangalore on Feb 5," says postal dept secretary

Even as its application to start a commercial bank is pending, India Post has drawn a massive plan to install as many as 3,000 ATMs and 1.35 lakh micro-ATMs at the ubiquitous post offices across the country for savings account holders by September 2015, a top official has said.

"We will be starting with three ATMs to be installed in New Delhi, Chennai and Bangalore on February 5 and then ramp it up gradually," postal department secretary Padmini Gopinath told a select group of reporters here over the weekend.

She said 1,000 ATMs with the India Post branding will be put in within the first year, which will be ramped up massively to 3,000 in the next 18 months.

To start with, the ATMs can be used only by 26 crore savings account-holders who save with the postal department, but Gopinath exuded confidence that within six months of the launch, they will get the interoperability permission from the Reserve Bank.

Postal savings are worth around Rs 6.05 trillion, which is half the savings in the largest lender SBI and more than double that of the largest private sector lender ICICI Bank.

Through interoperability, India Post will join the National Financial Switch, which will benefit India Post account holders to transact at the banks' ATMs and vice versa, she added.
