  • RBI had received 142 application for payment banks and 71 application for small banks.

    A preliminary scrutiny of all the applications involving prima facie eligibility including the ability to raise the minimum initial capital and the status of ownership and control by residents as per the Guidelines was carried out by the RBI team. The findings of the preliminary scrutiny were presented to an External Advisory Committee (EAC) constituted under the Chairmanship of Smt. Usha Thorat, former Deputy Governor of the RBI. The EAC recommended applications to be taken up for detailed examination based on prima facie eligibility vis - à - vis the Guidelines.

    The detailed scrutiny involved assessment of financial soundness, proposed business plan, fit and proper status based on due diligence reports received from the regulators, investigative agencies, banks, etc.

    An important factor was proposed reach into unbanked areas and underserved sections of the population. The EAC held detailed discussions in multiple sittings on the applications based on the information presented to it. The EAC then submitted its recommendations to the RBI.

    An Internal Screening Committee (ISC), consisting of the Governor and the four Deputy Governors of the RBI thereafter examine the applications. The ISC also deliberate on the rationale of the recommendations made by the EAC.  After scrutinising all the applications, the ISC made its independent recommendations to the Committee of the Central Board (CCB) of the RBI.
