GD Topic- "Demonetisation is good or bad for Indian economy"
Each candidate spoke on the above-mentioned topic for few minutes after which the group came to a conclusion. Group Discussion can be a tensed situation for some, but with confidence and clarity of thought, one can easily score in this phase. It is important to maintain the decorum of the session and avoid being too loud. Put forth your views and opinions firmly best backed by figures or facts and also let your fellow group members voice their opinions.

How stamp vendor makes profit

This was my overall experience, I fumbled in 2 question and enjoying in reciting a poem; they smiled when I recited the shayri. I tried to maintain eye contact but forgot to wish while leaving.

So this was my first interview and it was 'okay', I was feeling nervous little bit. They asked no questions from bank academics and current affairs they only counter attacked with a question from what I answered. This certainly a pressure test to check how much stress you can absorb.
