First bank in India to offer secured access, storage of documents on
Government of India’s platform



Mumbai, 2017: In a move to support the Government of India’s Digital India and cashless initiative, Kotak Mahindra Bank (KMB) has become India’s first bank to launch access to DigiLocker on the Bank’s Net Banking platform. Through this platform, customers can eliminate the use of physical documents as Aadhaar-linked documents can be automatically fetched from Digilocker partner institutions. Customers can also download pre-verified documents themselves by providing some details. 

Customers only need a valid Aadhaar number to avail the DigiLocker. It is a free service with storage capacity of 1GB. They can upload scanned copies of their documents like Driving license, Voter ID, School Certificates, etc.  in their DigiLocker. They can share them with anyone using email, and can also electronically sign them using the eSign facility. KMB has provided single sign-on access to DigiLocker via Kotak Net Banking. 

Commenting on the launch, Deepak Sharma, Chief Digital Officer, Kotak Mahindra Bank, said “We fully support Government’s agenda of digitisation and making India cashless. DigiLocker is targeted at paperless governance. It offers customers the convenience of uploading and accessing key documents on a single platform. This service is in-line with our philosophy of convenient digital banking solutions that solves real problems and simplifies banking.”

KMB will subsequently extend access to DigiLocker via Mobile Banking and other digital platforms as well.

by samikha   Mumbai, May, 2024: The scion of Lord Shri Ram's lineage, Darwin Platform Group of Companies (DGPC) Founder and Chairman Ajay Harinath Singh has found himself targeted by unseen forces with vested interests. Retaliating to these ‘unseen forces’ the Darwin Platform Chief emphasized that life threats and malicious campaigns, resulting from political vendetta make him more determined to fight the battle and expose them.  The whispers of a conspiracy began years ago, fueled by jealousy and fear of his growing influence in the 2000s. Coming from a Royal family of Sultanpur (Uttar Pradesh), his popularity in the state and Maharashtra unnerved many political parties that used to govern. Aligned with sacred lineage, his passion for nation-building and Hindutva made him popular among people and the BJP, however, this antagonized Congress and their current allies. Questions are many- Was the Congress party, in its bid to maintain its hold on power, orchestrating a campaign t...
