--RBI releases draft of consolidated supervisory instructions
MUMBAI – The Reserve Bank of India has consolidated all of its supervisory instructions into 64 master directions, aiming to reduce compliance burden and improving clarity for regulated entities. The central bank has sought feedback on the draft consolidated instructions by May 8.
"This exercise is expected to (i) enhance the accessibility and clarity of supervisory instructions for the regulated entities, (ii) reduce compliance burden, and (iii) improve the understanding of the applicability of instructions across different categories of regulated entities," the RBI said in a release.
With this exercise, the central bank will repeal 626 circulars, including master circulars and master directions, administered by the Department of Supervision. The move follows a similar exercise the RBI did for its regulatory instructions in 2025, where it consolidated 9,000 circulars and guidelines into 238 function-wise master directions. End
