Benefits and features

  • Standalone or automatic savings-account sweep modes
  • Term-deposit returns while retaining partial reverse-sweep access
  • Configurable FIFO or LIFO unit-breaking order
  • Remaining unbroken principal keeps its original rate
  • Loan or overdraft facility against eligible MODS

Eligibility

  • Individuals and minors are listed as eligible; the page does not list non-individual customers.
  • Auto sweep is published for Savings Plus, Salary Package, Wealth customers and minors, while standalone MODS is available independently of sweep thresholds.
  • The linked account must remain KYC-compliant for auto sweep to execute.
  • Rates depend on tenor, customer category and booking date; MODS is excluded from the separate SBI Patrons super-senior premium.
  • The product page refers to the current penalty clause without a numeric premature-withdrawal percentage.

Passing a listed condition does not mean the bank will approve an application.

Documents the bank lists

  • KYC and deposit-opening documents applicable under SBI's current rules; the MODS page does not publish a dedicated checklist
