    As per NOTIFICATION no. G.S.R. 521(e), dated 1-8-2007 under para (2) it was stated that ” They shall come into force on the date of their publication in the Official Gazette.2. 2. In the Post Office (Monthly Income Account) Rules, 1987 “.

    Does this amendment apply to the accounts already opened and running prior to the date of notification?. Can one proceed with further deposits in the account till the ceiling of 9 lakhs is reached in a joint account ?
