Read the PNB source layout correctly

Printed structure: Government-style PDF with Txn Date, Value Date, Description, Cheque No., Debit, Credit, Balance

Date notation: DD/MM/YYYY. Money notation: ₹ INR. Observed statement size: 15–100 pages.

Amounts use the Indian lakh/crore grouping (e.g. 1,00,000 and 1,00,00,000), which generic parsers misread as different numbers; ClearlyLedger normalises them to plain decimals.

Fields and row patterns found in Punjab National Bank PDFs

The profile uses the bank-specific observations below as review checkpoints. They describe the source document rather than making a generic promise about every PDF:

  • PNB checkpoint 1: Older PDFs are scanned images requiring OCR
  • PNB checkpoint 2: Description column often contains Hindi text mixed with English
  • PNB checkpoint 3: Page numbering interrupts transaction tables
  • PNB checkpoint 4: E-statement PDF is password-protected — date of birth in DDMMYYYY format unlocks it, or the account number/Customer ID (CIF) as an alternative

Review the PNB extraction

A typical Punjab National Bank file runs 15–100 pages. Confirm its DD/MM/YYYY dates, INR signs, first and final transactions, and page boundaries. Balance review is especially important on this layout. Older PDFs are scanned images requiring OCR. The PDF remains the source; the spreadsheet is the reviewable working copy.

  1. Upload the Punjab National Bank PDF.
  2. Inspect the documented PNB row patterns.
  3. Reconcile the INR transaction math.
  4. Download verified PNB Excel or CSV data.

Use the PNB output in India

Excel suits source-document review and coding. CSV suits mapped imports into Zoho Books, Tally, QuickBooks or Busy. Those routes preserve the DD/MM/YYYY interpretation and INR values established from the Punjab National Bank source.

PNB privacy and retention

The PNB PDF is processed in memory and deleted after conversion. The PNB transaction data is not used to train AI models. TLS protects the upload in transit, while the workflow is designed around India's DPDP Act 2023 for India account holders.
