Dataset Details

Dataset Description

This is a comprehensive synthetic dataset of Indian bank transactions designed to reflect realistic banking behaviors across multiple Indian banks, payment systems (UPI, NEFT, IMPS, RTGS), and transaction types. The dataset incorporates regional naming patterns, realistic transaction flows, running balance calculations, and India-specific banking features such as UPI reference numbers, IFSC codes, MICR codes, and merchant identifiers commonly seen in Indian bank statements.

The dataset includes both Current Accounts (business banking) and Savings Accounts (individual banking) with transactions in two statement formats:

  • Separate Debit/Credit Columns: Traditional format with distinct debit and credit columns
  • Single Transaction Column: Combined format where debits and credits appear in one column with +/- indicators

Each statement is provided in:

  • Scanned PDF format: Visual representation mimicking actual bank statement PDFs (suitable for OCR and document understanding tasks)
  • Digital JSON format: Structured data with rich metadata including account details, branch information, and transaction records

Note: This dataset contains only legitimate transactions. It does NOT include fraudulent transactions or fraud patterns.

  • Curated by: AgamiAI Inc.
  • Funded by: AgamiAI Inc.
  • Language(s): English (primary), Hindi (romanized merchant/location names)

Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

India has one of the world's fastest-growing digital payment ecosystems, with UPI processing billions of transactions monthly. However, publicly available datasets for training AI models on Indian financial documents are scarce due to privacy and regulatory constraints.

AgamiAI created this synthetic dataset to support the development of privacy-preserving, accurate AI solutions for financial services. As a company specializing in private AI agents for enterprise clients, particularly in financial services, AgamiAI recognized the critical need for high-quality training data that:

  1. Enables development and testing of document AI systems for Indian bank statements
  2. Supports OCR and information extraction model training on scanned financial documents
  3. Provides realistic training data reflecting India-specific payment systems and banking formats
  4. Allows developers to build and test banking applications without accessing real customer data
  5. Includes both scanned (unstructured) and digital (structured) formats for comprehensive document understanding tasks
  6. Supports research in transaction classification, document parsing, and financial NLP
  7. Facilitates the development of agentic AI workflows for financial document processing

Source Data

Data Collection and Processing

This is a fully synthetic dataset with no real customer information. The generation process leverages AgamiAI's expertise in building enterprise-grade AI solutions and includes:

Statement Generation:

  • Two format types: separate debit/credit columns and single combined transaction column
  • Both scanned PDF (for OCR tasks) and structured JSON (for direct data processing)
  • Realistic bank statement templates matching actual Indian bank formats
  • Proper letterheads, logos, and formatting (synthetic bank brands)

Transaction Generation:

  • Probabilistic modeling of realistic transaction patterns (frequency, amounts, timing)
  • Proper debit/credit flows with accurate running balance calculations
  • Transaction type distribution matching Indian banking patterns (high UPI usage, business-focused NEFT/RTGS)
  • Salary credits, vendor payments, cash management at realistic intervals
  • Transaction reversals and failed transactions for realistic edge cases

Indian Banking Features:

  • UPI reference numbers following standard 12-digit formats
  • NEFT/RTGS reference numbers with bank codes (HDFC, ICICI, Citi, etc.)
  • Realistic business and individual names across Indian regions
  • IFSC codes following standard format (BANK0123456)
  • MICR codes (9 digits)
  • Branch codes and locations
  • Service charges and bank fees

Account Variations:

  • Current Accounts: Business entities (companies, partnerships)
  • Savings Accounts: Individual account holders
  • Various transaction volumes (low to high frequency)
  • Different balance ranges (small to large accounts)

Regional Coverage:

  • Major metros: Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Pune, Chennai, Kolkata, Hyderabad
  • Business entities: IT companies, manufacturing firms, retail chains, financial services
  • Mix of B2B transactions (business-to-business) and individual transactions

Temporal Patterns:

  • Quarterly statement periods (3-month spans)
  • Monthly salary/revenue patterns for businesses
  • Vendor payment cycles
  • Service charge applications (monthly/quarterly)
  • Weekend vs weekday transaction patterns

Who are the source data producers?

This is entirely synthetic data generated algorithmically by AgamiAI Inc. No real individuals, businesses, banks, or merchants contributed actual transaction data.

Annotations

Transaction types and metadata were assigned algorithmically based on transaction patterns:

  • Transaction Type Classification: UPI, NEFT, RTGS, IMPS, Cheque, ATM, Cash automatically tagged
  • Entity Extraction: Merchant names, bank names, reference numbers systematically generated
  • Temporal Features: Date, value_date, and statement periods logically consistent

Personal and Sensitive Information

This dataset contains NO real personal or financial information. All elements are synthetically generated:

  • Account numbers: Fictional/masked
  • Business names: Generated (mix of real company name patterns and fictional entities)
  • Individual names: Generated using Indian naming patterns
  • Phone numbers: Synthetic (10-digit format)
  • Addresses: Fictional but realistic (actual area/city names with fictional building/street)
  • IFSC codes: Synthetic (following standard format)
  • MICR codes: Fictional
  • Transaction amounts: Statistically modeled
  • Balances: Generated based on transaction flows
  • Branch details: Fictional branches with realistic naming

No real individuals or businesses can be identified from this data.

Bias, Risks, and Limitations

Known Limitations:

  1. No Fraud Patterns: Dataset contains only legitimate transactions - NOT suitable for fraud detection training
  2. Urban/Business Bias: Reflects urban business banking behaviors more than rural or very small-scale individual banking
  3. Transaction Volume: Business current accounts may show different patterns than retail savings accounts
  4. Regional Coverage: While multi-regional, may not capture all linguistic and business variations across India's states
  5. Temporal Simplification: Seasonal business patterns simplified compared to real-world complexity
  6. Document Variations: Scanned PDFs may not capture all possible bank statement layouts and formats used across Indian banks
  7. OCR Challenges: Scanned documents generated synthetically may not include all real-world OCR challenges (handwriting, stamps, poor scans)

Technical Limitations:

  • Transaction description formats standardized; real statements have more variation
  • Failed/reversed transactions simplified compared to real-world complexity
  • Cross-border transactions limited or excluded
  • Does not include all possible service charges and bank fees
  • Statement formats limited to common layouts (not exhaustive of all Indian banks)

Social and Ethical Considerations:

  • Dataset reflects formal banking sector; excludes informal financial systems
  • Business transactions may not represent individual consumer spending patterns
  • Modern digital payment heavy; traditional banking methods (cash, cheques) represented but lower frequency
  • Should not be used to make assumptions about real businesses' or individuals' financial behaviors

Recommendations

For Model Developers:

  • Use for document AI, OCR, and information extraction training
  • Validate extraction models on real anonymized data before production
  • This is suitable for structure and format learning, not for behavioral modeling
  • Do NOT use for fraud detection - lacks fraudulent transaction patterns
  • Consider using AgamiAI's platform for deploying privacy-preserving AI models trained on this data

For Researchers:

  • Clearly disclose use of synthetic data in publications
  • Focus research on document understanding, not financial behavior
  • Validate findings with real data where possible
  • Consider this for algorithm development, not financial insights

For Banking/Fintech Applications:

  • Excellent for testing document processing pipelines
  • Use for UI/UX testing with realistic-looking statements
  • Good for training staff on document review workflows
  • Do NOT use for actual financial analysis or compliance
  • Validate regulatory requirements with real anonymized data
  • For production deployment of AI solutions, consider AgamiAI's private AI platform for secure, compliant deployment

For Document AI Tasks:

  • Train table extraction models on the scanned PDF format
  • Use JSON for ground truth validation
  • Test entity recognition and classification systems
  • Benchmark OCR accuracy across different statement formats
