@POLARSTAR since you've asked, here's my suggestion:
in concord, many applicants' funds were unblocked due to some error, but the whole amount was blocked again immediately.
here, the whole amount isn't blocked again.
however, it seems not all SBI applicants are affected. So they might* not take any action. And later give you some compensation for their mistake.
if you are going to apply bhni in Vishnu, I'd suggest to apply from SBI itself as you won't have to get troubled for money transfer & save some time.
but, otherwise if you apply from any bank, check its cutoff time.. you can easily apply in last 20 mins with good internet connection.
For retail, shni<5L you can apply via UPI till 4-4:30 PM.
so, if asaba cutoff time is 2 PM, wait till 1:40 PM tomorrow.
Till that time call the officials of SBI, linkintime and tell them in case they don't rectify the mistake you will be compelled to involve SEBI for loss of investors and that you will file a claim for damages.
today itself you can
-Reach out to SEBI, BSE, SBI, Link Intime publicly on twitr.
-email all the officials.
-lodge grievance at banks grievance portal.
-lodge complaint on SCORES portal.
