The maximum limit for deposit of cash at non-home branch is Rs 2 lakh per day. Thereafter, the non-home branch manager gets to decide if the bank can accept more cash. Meanwhile, account holders with an average monthly balance of Rs 25,000 can perform free cash withdrawal twice a month.
The Finance Act 2017, took various measures to restrain black money and as an outcome of which, a new section 269ST was inserted in the Income Tax Act. Section 269ST imposed restriction on a cash transaction and limited it to Rs.2 Lakhs per day.
Section 269ST states that no person shall receive an amount of Rs 2 Lakh or more:
In aggregate from a person in a day; or
In respect of a single transaction; or
In respect of transactions relating to one event or occasion from a person.
However, the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has clarified that this cash withdrawal limit does not apply for withdrawals from Banks and Post offices.
Thus the provisions of section 269ST will not apply to:
Cash received through an Account Payee Cheque or an Account Payee Bank draft or use of electronic clearing system (ECS) through a bank account.
Any receipt by the Government, any banking company, post office savings bank or co-operative bank.
Transactions of nature referred to in section 269SS.
Such other persons or class of persons or receipts, which the Central government may, by notification Official Gazette, specify.

There is no limit for deposit, however some Banks charges the transaction on the basis of no. of pieces of currency note deposited. the deposit should not be in violation of Income Tax law / Rules.
Some Banks have fixed no. of Transactions allowed in one SB account in one financial year. bank may charge each entry after crossing this limit.
There is no limit for withdrawal from account.

Current account as refereed by you, is for large no. of transaction, if the deposit limit is fixed in such account, the whole purpose of maintaining a Current Account would be defeated.
Bank charges monthly / quarterly service charges for maintaining such accounts.
Apart from this cash deposit fee would also be levied on the basis of no. of pieces deposited.
