Actually, the money got deducted from your account due to NACH obligations. To understand this, you first need to understand what is NACH. National Automated Clearing House (NACH) is created by the National Payments Corporation of India or NPCI to make periodic payments easier. To make it easy for you, NACH is used for the automatic payment of EMIs from your account. So, whenever you buy something on EMI or take a loan, the amount gets deducted from your saving account on a fixed date and you are required to keep a sufficient balance in your account from a day in advance of the due date. So, suppose if the EMI is to be deducted on the 5th of every month, the amount needs to be in your account from the 4th. 

If you fail to maintain sufficient balance, the bank levies a penalty of Rs 250. This penalty also attracts a GST of 18%. So, 18% of Rs 250= Rs 45. The total amount is Rs 250 + Rs 45 = Rs 295. Therefore, the bank deducts Rs 295 from your account as a penalty for the insufficient balance due to which the NACH EMI mandate got bounced. 

So, if you want to stop the loss of your money from your saving account, do maintain a sufficient balance in your account for the EMIs.
