Hi
I am planning to opt for the HDFC Auto sweep facility for my savings account as I have a good amount of money in my account. I was reading one blog that states that there are some charges if we opt for the auto sweeps facility. But some articles have not mentioned any charges. So I want to know, how much charge are there if I choose this facility, including other hidden charges? And how much money should I set as a threshold for auto sweep?

Yes, HDFC charges some fees if you choose the auto sweep services. Additionally, HDFC charges fees for early withdrawals from fixed deposits. The threshold amount is entirely dependent on your spending and saving habits. Many set it at ₹25,000–₹50,000, hence just the additional money gets cleaned.
Regarding the hidden charges, it's advisable to consult with bank officials to gain further clarity on whether to choose this service or not.
