Money deposited in bank just the other day (8)

I believe the answer is:

recently

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'the other day' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'money deposited in bank just' is the wordplay.
'money' becomes 'cent' (eg denomination of dollars).
'deposited in' is an insertion indicator.
'bank just' becomes 'rely' (to bank on is to rely on. I am not sure about the 'just' bit.).
'cent' put within 'rely' is 'RECENTLY'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for recently that I've seen before include "Adverb meaning not long ago" , "Happening not long ago" , "Lately" , "In the near past" , "Not so long since" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
