The service, which is yet to be launched formally in the market, reported 1.7 million transactions in one month during trial run.
In order to use the service, customers must register their mobile numbers with HDFC bank and give missed call to any of the six toll-free numbers to put a service request.
Chugh said a customer will not have to place any verbal instruction and can disconnect immediately when the call is connected.
