- ICICI Bank launched the first of its kind fully automated digital locker, which would be available to customers even on weekends and post banking hours.

- The ‘Smart Vault’ is an example of ‘Make In India’ programme as it has been designed and manufactured by Indian partners.
- The vault uses robotic technology to access the lockers from the safe vault and enables customers to access their lockers at any time of their preference.
- The lockers are of two-three different sizes and charges would depend on that. Also, the locker charges in a city would vary depending on the real estate cost.
