At the point when a bank falls flat, the solitary rest an investor has is the protection cover offered by the Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC). In spite of the fact that the protection cover under DICGC was raised to Rs 5 lakh from Rs 1 lakh, successful from February 4, 2020, this sum can be deficient for some contributors.
Sorts of stores that appreciate the DICGC protection cover
The protection cover offered by DICGC chips away at stores, for example, bank accounts, fixed stores (FD), current records, repeating stores (RD), and so forth Notwithstanding, there are not many stores which are prohibited like the stores of unfamiliar governments, focal/state governments, the state land advancement saves money with a state co-employable bank, between bank stores, any sum due because of and store got outside India and any sum, which has been explicitly excluded by the company with the past endorsement of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI)

According to the DICGC rules, every investor in a bank is safeguarded up to a limit of Rs 5 lakh for both head and premium sums held by her/him in a similar right and same limit as on the date of liquidation/abrogation of the bank's permit or the date on which the plan of blend/consolidation/recreation comes into power.
This means every one of your records held in a similar right and limit whether reserve funds or current record, FD or RD, will be clubbed and you will get just an absolute protection front of Rs 5 lakh. This sum incorporates both head and the gathered revenue sum.
Thus, assuming your chief sum is Rs 5 lakh, you will just get this sum back and not the amassed revenue on the stores if the bank falls flat.
