On August 17, 2023, RBI launched a central web portal called UDGAM (Unclaimed Deposits – Gateway to Access inforMation) to simplify the search for unclaimed deposits across various banks. The aim to introduce this portal is to tackle the growing issue of unclaimed deposits.
The portal allows users to locate and claim their deposits or activate dormant accounts. It is developed in collaboration with Reserve Bank Information Technology Pvt Ltd (ReBIT), Indian Financial Technology & Allied Services (IFTAS) and participating banks.
