PMC deposit holders to move courts against amalgamation plan

Instead, the agency requires all depositors to have a maximum lock-up period of five years and pay depositors a minimum 6% interest rate during that time. In addition, the Deposit Insurance Guarantee Corporation Scheme (DICGC) was launched to provide liquidity support for full repayment by banks.
