Answer» Issuing demand draft (DD): - A demand draft (DD) is a cheque written by a bank (issuing bank) to another bank/branch asking it to pay money to the person/organization whose name is mentioned on it. Demand daft is a very secure medium for sending money to a person or an institute.
- The person who wishes to send money fills a form in the bank requesting it to issue the draft for the details mentioned in the form. Based on this the bank prepares a demand draft and mentions the receiver’s name on it and passes the order to its branch or associate bank to make the payment to the receiver. If the bank issues a draft that can be encashed only in the same branch then it is called pay-order.
- The sender of the DD needs to pay certain commission to the banks for this service.
