Central Bank of India statement PDF to Excel & Tally XML

Convert Central Bank of India (Central Bank) bank statement PDFs with Jemsky’s dedicated parser — not a renamed homepage and not generic OCR. This page documents the layouts we actually ship, the quirks that break other converters, and examples CAs see in the wild.

Central Bank of India statements are often A3 portrait with Post Date and Value Date plus a branch code column. Dropping this file into an A4 SBI geometry leaves the balance column off the page.

Jemsky’s CBI strategy keys CBIN0 and the full table header (Post Date Value Date Branch Code…). Account holder is parsed from the line under Product type, not from random header noise.

Password-protected files and older fonts are handled in memory. Export Excel/CSV/Tally XML; discard PDF.

Statement formats the Central Bank parser recognizes

• A3 portrait (~842×1190 pt): Post Date, Value Date, Branch Code, Cheque Number, Account Description, Debit, Credit, Balance CR

Parser quirks specific to Central Bank

• Pages are A3-class, not A4 — parsers copied from SBI A4 bounds will miss the right-hand balance.
• IFSC CBIN0 / central bank of india identity.
• Product type line sits above the account holder; holder is the line below Product type.
• Legacy fonts and password PDFs unlock in RAM only.

Example narrations and how they export

• A3 three-page CA statement — 115-txn class files still fit the CBI plugin, not Universal Fallback.
• Balance with CR suffix — Numeric balance; CR is not a separate column in Excel.

CA workflow on Central Bank files

If a CBI PDF looks ‘zoomed out’ in the viewer, it is probably A3. Use Jemsky Auto Detect rather than a generic A4 tool. Confirm closing CR balance against the PDF summary.

Exports and privacy

Every successful convert can download Excel (.xlsx), CSV, and TallyPrime / Tally.ERP 9 Payment and Receipt XML. Customer statement bytes never land in Jemsky’s database. Optional Tally Party Ledger Masters store ledger names you import — not this bank’s PDF.

1. Open the converter and upload the Central Bank PDF.
2. Leave Auto Detect on unless you know the exact layout name.
3. Confirm the financial audit equation matches the printed closing balance.
4. Export Excel for the working paper and/or Tally XML.
