My Bank Showed ₹62,700 But Books Had Only ₹48,200 – How I Fixed It in 30 Minutes (Real Format)
By Vaibhav Rajapkar• December 2025 • 6 min read
One random morning in Aug 2024:
→ Mobile banking app = ₹48,200
→ Downloaded bank statement = ₹62,700
Instant panic!
Then I remembered three cheques worth ₹18,000 were still not presented + bank had credited ₹500 interest which I never recorded.
Made a quick Bank Reconciliation Statement and also ca
ught one employee who had entered a fake ₹5,000 expense. Saved ₹23,000 fraud that month.
Exact Format I Use Every Month (Copy-Paste Ready)
| Balance as per Cash Book | ₹48,200 |
| Add: Interest credited by bank | ₹500 |
| Add: Direct deposit by customer | ₹14,000 |
| Less: Cheques issued but not presented | (₹18,000) |
| Less: Bank charges | (₹200) |
| Balance as per Passbook | ₹62,700 |
|---|
Now I force every client to do this on the 1st of every month. Caught 4 frauds in 2024 alone.
