Closing a bank account can seem tedious if you don’t know the process. However, closing your IDFC First Bank savings or current account is quick and straightforward if you complete the required formalities accurately.
This comprehensive guide will outline the procedure to permanently close an IDFC First Bank retail account by visiting your home branch. We will cover the documents needed, account closure form filling process, branch submission, and tracking the request status. Whether you are shifting abroad, consolidating finances, or simply no longer need the account, follow this guide for a smooth account closure experience.
Prerequisites to Closing IDFC First Bank Account
Before you begin the account closure process, make sure to:
- Withdraw or transfer out any existing fixed deposits separately.
- Clear all outstanding loans, credit cards, fees or bills with IDFC First Bank.
- Cancel any standing instructions linked to the account like SIPs.
- Settle pending cheques or deposits at the branch.
- Withdraw the entire account balance via cash, cheque or transfer.
Completing these steps will ensure there are no pending ties to the bank after your account is closed.
Documents Required for Account Closure
To close your IDFC First Bank account, you need to submit the following documents to the branch:
- Account closure request form – duly filled and signed by all account holders
- Identity proof like PAN card or Aadhaar
- Valid address proof like electricity bill
- Cancelled cheque leaf or latest bank account statement
- Passbook, if one was issued for the account
Attach clear self-attested photocopies of all the above documents along with the closure form. Now let’s look at the step-by-step process to close an IDFC First Bank account online.
How to Close IDFC First Bank Account?
Follow these simple steps to permanently close your IDFC First Bank savings or current account by visiting the home branch:
Step 1: Get the Account Closure Form
Visit your nearest IDFC First Bank branch office and request the account closure form. Ensure all details are filled correctly as per your account. All account holders must sign the closure request form.
Step 2: Attach KYC Documents
Attach self-attested copies of your valid identity and address proof documents. This is mandatory for closure request processing.
Step 3: Submit the Form at the Branch
Submit the duly filled account closure form along with attached KYC documents at the home branch. Collect and save the acknowledgement slip for your request.
Step 4: Settle All Pending Transactions
Settle any pending deposits, cheques, interest or fees at the branch before account closure. This avoids future hassles.
Step 5: Collect Closure Confirmation
Visit the branch again after 5-7 working days to collect the final account closure confirmation letter.
This completes the offline process for permanent closure of your IDFC First Bank account. Maintaining accuracy at each step ensures a smooth experience.
How to Close an IDFC First Bank Fixed Deposit Account
To close an IDFC First Bank fixed deposit account, follow these steps:
Step 1: Get Fixed Deposit Closure Form
Request the fixed deposit account closure form from the IDFC First Bank branch or download it online.
Step 2: Fill in Details
Fill in the FD account and customer details accurately in the closure form.
Step 3: Attach KYC Documents
Attach self-attested KYC documents as identity and address proof.
Step 4: Submit Original FDR Receipt
Submit the duly filled FD closure form along with the original FDR deposit receipt at the branch.
Step 5: Receive Closure Confirmation
The branch will process the request and provide FD closure confirmation in 2-3 working days.
This completes the process to close an IDFC First Bank fixed deposit account by visiting the home branch.
Tips for Hassle-free Account Closure
Follow these tips when closing your IDFC First Bank account:
- Settle all outstanding dues and charges before submitting the request.

No, all account holders have to jointly submit the account closure request and required documents. Consent of all holders is mandatory.
3. What is the account closure turnaround time?
It takes approximately 5-7 working days to close an IDFC First Bank account through the offline process.
4. Do I need to visit the branch multiple times?
You have to visit the branch twice – first to submit documents and then later to collect the closure confirmation letter.
5. Can I close an IDFC First Bank account online?
Currently, you can only close IDFC First Bank accounts by submitting the request at the home branch. The option for online account closure is not available.
