What a Canara e-statement PDF looks like
Canara Bank statements downloaded from NetBanking follow a consistent layout. The header carries the account details; the body is a transaction table:
- Account number — a 13-digit number (e.g. 0510…), shown with the branch, IFSC and statement period.
- Transaction table — Date, Value Date, Description, Cheque/Ref No., Debit, Credit, Balance, with dates in dd/MM/yyyy.
- No password — the Canara statements we tested opened directly with no encryption.
A Value Date column — and a closing balance to check
Two Canara-specific details worth knowing before you convert:
- Value Date next to Transaction Date. For cheques and NEFT, the two can differ by a day. Book the voucher on the transaction date; the value date only matters if you reconcile against the bank's clearing cycle.
- Closing balance rows. Canara prints a closing balance after the transactions. When you preview the conversion, match the last balance to the statement's figure to confirm no row was dropped.
13-digit accounts are uncommon
Canara's 13-digit account format is shorter than most private banks' 14–15 digits. The header shows it clearly — and the converter doesn't depend on the digit count, it reads the transaction table.

Check the dates, preview the rows
Canara statements print a Value Date alongside the transaction date. The converter reads the transaction date into the voucher, so nothing shifts.
