Digital Desk: A Chennai pharmacy worker discovered that his bank account had been credited with a whopping Rs 753 crore on Saturday.

Muhammad Idris transferred Rs 2,000 from his Kotak Mahindra bank account to a friend on Friday. He made the decision to check his account balance following this transaction.

When he checked his bank balance, the message displayed a jaw-dropping sum of Rs 753 crore.

Idris reported the issue to the bank as he was concerned about this unusual occurrence, which subsequently froze his account.
