MUMBAI – The Reserve Bank of India Governor Sanjay Malhotra Wednesday said the central bank has completed consolidation of all its supervisory instructions for the banking sector and it would release a new revised list. The RBI will also revise and rationalise matters requiring the attention of a bank's board as this will help utilise such boards' time better, the governor said.
The central bank will dispense with the requirement of due diligence while onboarding micro, small, and medium enterprises on the Trade Receivables Discounting System platforms, Malhotra said.
All three measures were part of the changes announced by Malhotra to boost the ease-of-doing business. This follows the consolidation of over 9,000 regulatory instructions into 238 Master Directions. This was a part of his statement after the first bi-monthly meeting of the RBI's Monetary Policy Committee for the financial year 2026-27 (Apr-Mar). End
