Savings accounts have low number of transactions as compared to a current account. Before advent of computers & printers the pass books were prepared by hand & were to be initialled by authorised official of the bank.

What does entries in pass book show?

What about wrong entries in the pass book?
In the recent past the pass books were filled in by clerk by hand & quite often wrong entries were made resulting in disputes.
In India there is a statutory duty on the part of the customer to examine his pass book & inform about mistake(s) appearing in the pass book if any to his banker. This duty means it operates against the customer if he is careless. Entries which are favourable to the customer but wrong or fictitious do not constitute a settlement of account as far as pass book is concerned.
