CSD AFD Online Shopping Website
Canteen Stores Department (CSD) has revised the norms of payment for purchasing AFD items recently. Earlier in CSD accept only Demand Draft (DD), now they have accepted the payment through online.
Demand Draft should be taken in favour of the ‘Canteen Stores Department Public Fund Account (Main) in any nationalized banks. There is a lot of time taken and charges also to be paid. Online fund transfer is very simple and saves money also.
In the case of NEFT transfer, first, add your respective Depot bank account number to your NEFT beneficiary list and then pay the amount of selected AFD item.
In the case of RTGS transfer, collect the bank account number of respective Depot with IFSC code. Two bank numbers are available for the amount paid above ten lakh and below ten lakhs. Paid through online banking with the option of RTGS with taking more care.
