‘Rs 10,01,35,60,00... Credited': Greater Noida's Dead Woman Receives 36-Digit Amount In Bank Account
When he visited the bank on Monday, officials confirmed the unusual credit but informed him that the account had been immediately frozen.
A shocking incident from Dankaur, Greater Noida, has left authorities puzzled. A 19-year-old youth, Deepak alias Deepu, discovered that more than Rs 1.13 lakh crore had been credited to his dead mother's Kotak Mahindra Bank account. His mother, Gayatri Devi, passed away two months ago, but Deepak had continued operating the account.
On Sunday night (August 3), he received a message showing an astronomical credit of Rs 10,01,35,60,00,00,00,00,00,01,00,23,56,00,00,00,00,299. Shocked, he shared the message with friends and asked them to count the zeros in disbelief.
नोएडा में 20 साल के दीपक के कोटक महिंद्रा बैंक खाते में 36 डिजिट की धनराशि आई है। ये रकम 1 अरब 13 लाख 56 हजार करोड़ रुपए बैठती है।

When he visited the bank on Monday, officials confirmed the unusual credit but informed him that the account had been immediately frozen. The Kotak Mahindra Bank team reported the matter to the Income Tax Department for investigation.
Youth Turns Off Phone After Calls Flood In
The Income Tax Department has launched an inquiry into the mysterious transaction. Officials are trying to find out how such an extraordinary amount was credited to an account belonging to a deceased person.
Authorities suspect it could be a banking error, a technical glitch, or possibly linked to money laundering. A detailed audit of the transaction trail is being carried out.
Bank officials have also started a parallel review to ensure no internal system failure caused the incident. The exact origin of the funds will only be known after the investigation is completed.
Local Buzz and Social Media Reactions
The incident quickly became a topic of conversation in Dankaur and on social media. Some users joked about 'instant billionaires," while others raised concerns about cybersecurity and banking safety.
For Deepak, however, the experience has been overwhelming rather than joyous. With the account frozen and an investigation underway, he now waits for clarity on how such a massive sum appeared overnight.
A Funny Calculation
Amid the craze, an X user calculated how much each Indian would get if the money is divided among the whole country's population.
'Total rashi: 1,13,56,000 करोड़ रुपये = 1,13,56,00,00,00,00,000 रुपये. India ki population: 2025 ke hisaab se, India ki population lagbhag 140 crore (1,400,000,000) log hai, based on recent estimates," he said.
Chalo, bhai, yeh bhi calculate karte hain!Diya hua data:Total rashi: 1,13,56,000 करोड़ रुपये = 1,13,56,00,00,00,00,000 रुपयेIndia ki population: 2025 ke hisaab se, India ki population lagbhag 140 crore (1,400,000,000) log hai, based on recent estimates.Step 1: Har ek ke— MD RASHID (@MDRASHI08328411) August 4, 2025
Then, he did a step by step calculation of the same, 'Total rashi ko population se divide karte hain: 1,13,56,00,00,00,00,000 ÷ 1,40,00,00,000
Yeh simplify karte hain: 1,13,56,00,00,00,00,000 ÷ 1,40,00,00,000 = 1,13,56,00,00,000 ÷ 1,40
Ab isko calculate karte hain: 1,13,56,00,00,000 ÷ 140 ≈ 81,11,42,857.14"
Lastly, he concluded announcing each person's share, 'Jawaab: Agar yeh rashi pure Hindustan ke logon (140 crore) mein barabar baant di jaye, toh har ek ke hisse mein lagbhag 81 crore 11 lakh rupees aayenge! Yeh toh ek banda crore-pati ban jayega."

Madras HC issues notice on PIL seeking safety check of grounded sulphur-laden ship at VOC Port
MADURAI: The Madurai Bench of Madras High Court on Tuesday issued notice to central and state governments on a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) filed seeking direction to conduct a safety inspection before allowing a ship, which ran aground while entering VOC Port in Thoothukudi, to leave Indian waters. Petitioner K Rajan, a former cargo ship captain from Kanniyakumari, stated that the ship MV NAVIX which was carrying over 39,000 tonnes of sulphur, ran aground on July 29, one mile away from the breakwater at the port entrance and remained grounded for two days, before being pulled back into the waters and berthed for unloading. Since the vessel carried hazardous cargo, it should be verified whether there was any environmental impact due to the grounding incident, he added. Counsel for VOC Port, informed the bench of justices SM Subramaniam and AD Maria Clete that that necessary inspection has been conducted. The case was adjourned for two weeks.

Romance to ruin: Bengaluru sees spike in dating scams
BENGALURU: Bengaluru is witnessing a surge in online dating scams, with fraudsters exploiting emotionally vulnerable individuals and drawing them into sophisticated financial frauds. What often begins as a search for love ends in heartbreak and financial ruin, as scammers exploit dating platforms to either extort victims or lure them into fraudulent investment schemes. Recently, a 32-year-old software engineer lost Rs 79.3 lakh after investing in a fake trading app, following the advice of a woman he met on a matrimonial website. In another case, a 37-year-old businessman lost Rs 5.5 lakh in a sextortion scam after connecting with a woman on a dating app. A senior officer from the cybercrime police station said dating fraud typically falls into two categories: honey-trap extortion (sextortion) and fraudulent trading schemes that trick victims into transferring money under the guise of investment opportunities. 'These women initiate warm, emotional conversations and gradually build trust,' the officer said. 'Eventually, they promise a future together, often even marriage.' Once the bond is established, often over several months, the victim is persuaded to invest in a fake trading platform. Many share personal financial struggles, including debts and loans, believing they are confiding in a partner. The scammers exploit these vulnerabilities, offering financial solutions that ultimately drain the victim's savings. The officer urged the public to avoid sharing personal or financial details with strangers online and to be cautious of anyone promising quick financial gains.
