Want to check your Kotak Mahindra Bank balance without visiting a bank branch or ATM? Kotak offers several convenient ways to view your available account balance using your registered mobile number.
You can give a missed call, send an SMS, use WhatsApp banking, log in through mobile or net banking, or check your balance online. Some of these methods work even without an active internet connection.
Here is a complete guide to the Kotak Bank balance check methods and official balance enquiry numbers.
Give a missed call to this number from your registered mobile number. You will receive an SMS containing your available account balance shortly after the call.
The service is useful when you need to check your account balance quickly without logging in to internet or mobile banking.
