What you type stays in this browser. Moving to a new step asks this site to draw it, but nothing is kept anywhere until you choose to keep a copy — and closing this tab loses it.

The draft, as it stands

This is the document as far as you have reached, not the whole of it yet — the rest appears as you answer more questions. It is rewritten every time you change an answer.

A long blank line — __________ — stands wherever an answer has not been given. It is left that visible on purpose, so an unfinished document cannot be mistaken for a finished one.

No answer has been given, so every place a detail belongs is standing blank. The shape of the document is worth reading even now.

POWER OF ATTORNEY FOR BANK

to be my true and lawful attorney, in my name and on my behalf, solely for the banking purposes described below, upon the terms of this Power.

1. THE BANK AND THE ACCOUNT(S)

1.2 The Attorney has no authority under this Power over any account, deposit or facility of the Principal not named above, or held with any bank other than the Bank named above.

2. POWERS GRANTED

3. THE BANK'S OWN REQUIREMENTS

3.1 This Power does not itself satisfy the Bank's know-your-customer requirements for the Attorney; the Attorney shall separately complete whatever identification and verification the Bank requires before operating the account(s).

3.2 Where the Bank's own printed or digital power of attorney format differs from this document, the Principal shall, if the Bank insists, execute the Bank's own format in addition to or instead of this Power, without that affecting the validity of this Power for any purpose outside that Bank's internal requirement.

4. NOT IRREVOCABLE

4.1 This is an ordinary power of attorney. It is revocable by the Principal at any time by written notice to the Attorney and to the Bank, under s.203 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872, and it terminates automatically on the Principal's death, under s.201 of that Act, whatever clause 5 below says about its stated duration. It is not granted as a power coupled with interest and no term of this Power should be read as attempting to make it one.

5. DURATION

6. GENERAL

6.1 The Attorney shall act honestly and in the Principal's interest, and shall keep the Principal reasonably informed of transactions carried out under this Power.

6.2 The Attorney may not sub-delegate this Power to another person.

6.4 If any provision of this Power is held invalid or unenforceable, the rest continues in effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the Principal has executed this Power of Attorney at __________ on __________.

Signature: ______________________________

WITNESSES

The rest stays out of view until every answer is in.

Reading costs nothing. Keeping a copy needs an account.

The opening of the draft is on this page as you answer it. Once every answer is in, the button below opens the whole draft, watermarked — still without an account. Printing it, or keeping a clean copy, is where an account is asked for. That is the whole arrangement.

A kept copy has to belong to somebody, and that is the reason for the account. There is nothing further to it.
