Hdfc kids advantage account.

They give a debit card too, might be helpful if you are looking for lounge access for family.

i would rather advise you to open a demat account than a savings account.

You can purchase stocks, mutual funds, bonds, Treasury bills, etfs...

I was given a HDFC Easyshop Rupay Platinum.
I told about lounge access because this card has lounge access as a benefit, nothing special or a separate thing I guess.

Bro couldn't enable online usage since it's a kids account. Have tried from branch and phonebanking. No way to do it from ATM and there can't be a Netbanking enabled, that I will do it from there.

Will love if there's a way to enable.

Coming back to the topic, @premsukh29 I have axis, kotak child savings accounts too. However I feel Hdfc is better than them. Too much limitations in the other two.

Most child accounts are generally under guardian account (jointly operated with the parent or guardian)

Net banking and mobile banking is also there or not?

As a parent I can see all details and can transact as well from the child account. However I don't have separate NB or mobile banking login for my kid. I don't know if you can enable in kotak or not for the junior account. 

In axis I got a separate Netbanking/ mobile banking for kid, which has no transactions enabled.

you can also try idfc.. minor account will linked to parent account and get separate debit card, also it will be zero balance account.  but parent has to maintain minimum balance either 10K or 25K depends on the account variant.

Recently opened for my wife(woman power account) and two kids.. all got visa signature card for 25K MAB smile  But i see, now idfc changed visa signature to visa platinum card for the new account.

I opened account in Bank of Baroda (Bank of Baroda Champ Account). After opening account i got a shock that they are not giving me anything other than Passbook. I complained about them on twitter that facilities written on your website are not provided to me. After 2 months of so many complain finally they offered me net banking for Kid account and they assured me that Debit card also applied for this account. After 20 days, debit card will be at my home. Let c what happened next.

I never have trust in PSU banks but BOB branch is near to me so I opened account.
