RBI has issued revised LBS guidelines to strengthen coordination among banks and government agencies. The framework enhances priority sector lending, credit planning, and accountability mechanisms.
RBI proposes permitting commercial banks to finance REITs subject to prudential exposure ceilings. The draft introduces safeguards to manage concentration and credit risk.
The amendment introduces LTV caps, valuation norms, and exposure limits for loans against eligible securities. It strengthens risk controls and integrates such lending within capital market exposure norms.
The revised Directions formally recognize acquisition finance and bridge finance for promoter stakes under banks’ permitted financial services. The move aligns operational guidelines with updated credit norms.
Banks must now disclose granular capital market exposures, including acquisition finance, IPO funding, CMIs, and underwriting commitments. The amendment enhances transparency and aligns reporting with revised concentration risk norms.
The RBI now permits acquisition finance only for strategic control transactions, subject to strict eligibility, valuation standards, 25% borrower contribution, and a 3:1 debt-equity ceiling. The move strengthens prudential safeguards and limits excessive leverage in takeover funding.
The RBI capped aggregate CME at 40% of eligible capital and expanded the definition to include acquisition finance, bridge finance, and IPCs, strengthening concentration risk oversight.
The new directions modify risk-weighted asset treatment, limiting capital maintenance to CME exposure and aligning with concentration risk rules.
The RBI amended NBFC Credit Facilities Directions to align asset classification and provisioning with updated prudential norms. The change ensures uniform application of income recognition and provisioning standards.
Rural Co-operative Banks can now recognise income on accrual basis for Standard assets, but must follow cash basis for non-Standard loans and reverse unrealised income on NPA classification.
