all banks have laid down detailed guidelines as to minimum balance that has to be maintained on quarterly basis . for instance in ICICI bank if you dont maintain average balance of Rs 10,000 / on quarterly basis bank levies QAB charges .
in case you are not in position to mainatain average balance close your account and shift to public sector bank wherein charges are lower .

recently Hon'ble HC Madras has clearly said that nationalised bank can not charge penalty for non mantainance of minimum balance..

Unfortunately, HDFC Bank is not a nationalised bank.
