RTGS (Real Time Gross Settlement) is a system used to transfer large sums of money between banks immediately. It ensures that transactions are processed in real-time and on a gross basis, meaning they are settled individually without netting.
The fees for RTGS transactions are structured based on the transaction amount. For transfers exceeding ₹2 lakh and up to ₹5 lakh, a fee of ₹25 plus applicable taxes is charged. For transactions above ₹5 lakh, the fee is ₹50 plus taxes.

Business RTGS systems are primarily used for domestic transfers. However, international RTGS networks, such as the SWIFT system, facilitate real-time transfers of funds across borders.
Banks typically investigate and reconcile issues if there is an error or discrepancy in an RTGS for a business transaction. Based on the outcome of the investigation and customer communication, funds may be reversed or corrected.
